CAPTURED The Corporate Infiltration of American Democracy

by | Read by Michael Bybee, Sheldon Whitehouse

Contemporary Culture • 9 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2017

In this provocative audiobook, Sheldon Whitehouse, a U.S. Senator from Rhode Island, provides an insider's account of how corporate and moneyed interests have insinuated themselves into our government. His main point is that the Founders didn't see how the economy and corporations would change to the point where they could influence elections and policy. Michael Bybee is the main narrator, while Senator Whitehouse reads the introduction and author's note. Of the two, Whitehouse has the more energetic, captivating voice. Bybee is far more subdued and unemotional, and the audiobook tends to drag when he's reading. Perhaps Whitehouse should have trusted his Senatorial debating voice and narrated the whole book.
