    Der Moment der Wahrheit
    New York, September 2004. Mary Mapes (Cate Blanchett) wird als Produzentin von "60 Minutes", des erfolgreichsten TV-Nachrichtenmagazins des Landes, allseits respektiert und geschätzt. Während sie im Beruf erfolgreich ist, führt sie privat ein glückliches Leben mit ihrer Familie. Doch als ihrem Team mitten im Präsidentschaftswahlkampf "Bush vs. Kerry" brisante Informationen über Dokumente aus den 1970er Jahren zugespielt werden, die belegen sollen, dass George W. Bush sich mit Hilfe seiner Familie vor einem Militäreinsatz im Vietnamkrieg gedrückt hat, gerät ihr Leben aus den Fugen. Mapes und der angesehene CBS-Anchorman Dan Rather (Robert Redford) enthüllen die Informationen im Rahmen eines investigativen Berichtes in "60 Minutes". Die Meldung schlägt ein wie eine Bombe. Doch innerhalb kürzester Zeit steht plötzlich nicht mehr Bushs Militärakte im Zentrum des Skandals. Es sind Mapes, Rather und ihr Team, die unter schärfsten Attacken von Medien und Öffentlichkeit ihre Story und deren Recherche verteidigen müssen. Während Dan Rather, Marys langjähriger Kollege und väterlicher Freund, vollstes Vertrauen in seine Produzentin hat, bringen die Angriffe Mary an ihre persönlichen Grenzen, als sich auch ihr Vater und selbst ihr eigener Sender gegen sie wenden. Es beginnt ein Kampf um persönliche und journalistische Integrität und Unabhängigkeit...

    Truth: The Press, the President, and the Privilege of Power , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 299min
    Mary Mapes's Truth (previously published as Truth & Duty) was made into the 2015 film Truth, starring Cate Blanchett, Robert Redford, Topher Grace and Elizabeth Moss. A riveting play-by-play of a reporter getting and defending a story that recalls All the President's Men, Truth puts listeners in the center of the 60 Minutes II story on George W. Bush's shirking of his National Guard duty. The firestorm that followed that broadcast - a conflagration that was carefully sparked by the right and fanned by bloggers - trashed Mapes' well-respected 25 year producing career, caused newsman Dan Rather to resign from his anchor chair early and led to an unprecedented "internal inquiry" into the story...chaired by former Reagan attorney general Richard Thornburgh. Truth examines Bush's political roots as governor of Texas, delves into what is known about his National Guard duty - or lack of service - and sheds light on the solidity of the documents that backed up the National Guard story, even including images of the actual documents in an appendix to the book. It is peopled with a colorful cast of characters - from Karl Rove to Sumner Redstone - and moves from small-town Texas to Black Rock - CBS corporate headquarters - in New York City. Truth connects the dots between a corporation under fire from the federal government and the decision about what kinds of stories a news network may cover. It draws a line from reporting in the trenches to the gutting of the great American tradition of a independent media and asks whether it's possible to break important stories on a powerful sitting president.  ungekürzt.
