THE STORY

When two young conservatives posed as a pimp and a prostitute in a sting to expose ACORN's business practices, it was a harbinger of the current political climate of fake news and intractable partisanship in politics.

The ensuing political drama spawned the now-omnipresent Breitbart Media, drove an even deeper wedge between Democrats and Republicans, and served as a prescient foreshadowing for much of today’s political climate. 

A comprehensive non-fiction political thriller, Reuben Atlas and Sam Pollard’s blow-by-blow account of the ACORN scandal encapsulates the conflicts and contradictions of our political present.
