935 LIES The Future of Truth and the Decline of America's Moral Integrity

The explosive growth of data and information has been a boon to the U.S., but this audiobook posits that it's also allowed our political leaders to hide the truth and to lie about their actions. Narrator Don Lee's deep voice and deliberate pacing fit the book's ominous theme well, and he enunciates every word. It's the author's view that the press has become complicit in spreading false information and is not doing its job to inform the public. It will all lead, he says, to a country in which voters will not have the necessary information to make intelligent policy choices. Lee's main limitation is that he reads in a monotone. This makes the book less engaging than it might have been despite its important message. R.I.G. [Published: AUGUST 2014]
