Rage pdf

Robert Upshur Woodward (nato il 26 marzo 1943) è un giornalista investigativo americano. Ha iniziato a lavorare per il Washington Post come reporter nel 1971 e ora detiene il titolo di redattore associato. Mentre era un giovane reporter per il Washington Post nel 1972, Woodward ha collaborato con Carl Bernstein, e i due hanno fatto gran parte delle notizie originali riportando su lo scandalo Watergate. Questi scandali hanno portato a numerose indagini governative e alle eventuali dimissioni del presidente Richard Nixon. Il lavoro di Woodward e Bernstein è stato definito "forse il più grande sforzo giornalistico di tutti i tempi" da Gene Roberts, personaggio di lunga data del giornalismo. Woodward ha continuato a lavorare per il Washington Post dopo il suo reportage sul Watergate. Ha scritto 21 libri sulla politica e l'attualità americana, 13 dei quali sono in cima alla lista dei best seller. Woodward è nato a Geneva, Illinois, figlio di Jane (nata Upshur) e Alfred E. Woodward, un avvocato che in seguito divenne giudice capo della 18th Judicial Circuit Court. È cresciuto nella vicina Wheaton, Illinois, e ha studiato alla Wheaton Community High School (WCHS), una scuola superiore pubblica nella stessa città. I ​​suoi genitori divorziarono quando aveva dodici anni, e lui, suo fratello e sua sorella furono cresciuti dal padre, che successivamente si risposò Dopo essere stato congedato come tenente nell'agosto 1970, Woodward fu ammesso alla Harvard Law School ma decise di non frequentare. Invece, ha fatto domanda per un lavoro come reporter per il Washington Post mentre frequentava corsi di laurea in Shakespeare e relazioni internazionali alla George Washington University. Harry M. Rosenfeld, redattore metropolitano del Post, gli concesse due settimane di prova ma non lo assunse a causa della sua mancanza di esperienza giornalistica. Dopo un anno al Montgomery Sentinel, un settimanale nei sobborghi di Washington, DC, Woodward fu assunto come giornalista del Post nel 1971.

Rage pdf da Bob Woodward

An unprecedented and intimate tour de force of original reporting on the Trump presidency from Bob Woodward.
Rage goes behind the scenes like never before, with stunning new details about early national security decisions and operations and Trump’s moves as he faces a global pandemic, economic disaster and racial unrest.
Woodward, the #1 internationally bestselling author of 13 #1 bestsellers, including Fear: Trump in the White House, shows Trump up close in his entirety before the 2020 presidential election.
President Trump has said publicly that Woodward has interviewed him. What is not known is that Trump provided Woodward a window into his mind through a series of exclusive interviews.
At key decision points, Rage shows how Trump’s responses to the crises of 2020 were rooted in the instincts, habits and style he developed during his first three years as president.
Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with firsthand witnesses, as well as participants’ notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents.
Woodward obtained 25 personal letters exchanged between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that have not been public before. Kim describes the bond between the two leaders as out of a “fantasy film,” as the two leaders engage in an extraordinary diplomatic minuet.
Rage will be the foundational account of the Trump presidency, its turmoil, contradictions and risks. It is an essential document for any voter seeking an accurate inside view of the Trump years—volatile and vivid.
“This will be the biggest national security threat you face in your presidency,” Robert O’Brien, the national security adviser, told Trump, expressing a jarring, contrarian view as deliberately and as strongly as possible. Trump’s head popped up. He asked the intelligence PDB briefer, Beth Sanner, several questions. She said China was worried, and the intelligence community was monitoring it, but it looked like this would not be anything nearly as serious as the deadly 2003 Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) outbreak. “This is going to be the roughest thing you face,” persisted O’Brien from his
seat around the Resolute Desk, well aware that Trump was only midway through his impeachment trial in the Senate, which had begun twelve days earlier and was consuming his attention. O’Brien believed the national security adviser had to try to see around corners, a duty to warn of an impending disaster. And this problem was urgent, not some geopolitical issue that might happen three years down the road. This virus could develop very quickly in the United States."
