As Rupert Murdoch appears to be once again amplifying Donald Trump, his heir, Lachlan, is being courted by the Republican ex-president.

This first-person tale by Lachlan Cartwright about the insidious ways in which the tabloid underworld turns is one of the most riveting things I've read in a long time. I'd be shocked if it doesn't eventually get the Hollywood treatment.

(Great cover, too.)

This is an honest and painful account. Definitely worth your read. Thank you Lachlan Cartwright

This is NUTS and honest and everyone should read it. Been waiting for ⁦Lachlan Cartwright⁩ to write this since we met 7 years ago, while I was working on the Harvey Weinstein (and the NBC News killing-the-Weinstein story).

Bravo. Excellent piece. nytimes.com/2024/04/03/mag…

For seven years I’ve been waiting to tell the story of what life was like on the inside of The National Enquirer during the notorious “catch and kill” campaign that now stands at the heart of Donald Trump’s first criminal trial.

Thank you Lachlan Cartwright for highlighting the courage & integrity of Ambra Battilana Gutierrez, who declined a $150K offer by the National Enquirer to buy – and bury – an exclusive interview about the abuse she faced as a young model by Harvey Weinstein.

Heckuva first-person story here by ⁦Lachlan Cartwright⁩ about his time at the National Enquirer, where he became an anonymous source for news reporting about Trump and the Enquirer’s “catch-and-kill” tactics—soon to be the subject of Trump’s NYC trial. nytimes.com/2024/04/03/mag…

>Lachlan Cartwright takes us inside the National Enquirer’s intensive “catch and kill” campaign waged to protect Trump

His story offers a wild ride but also a vital understanding of Trump’s manipulation of press coverage.
