    "Lisa Flanagan narrates journalist Margaret Sullivan's memoir/manifesto authoritatively....and gives this important audiobook the seriousness it merits." - AudioFile MagazinePrologue read by the authorOver her four decades of working in newsrooms big and small, Margaret Sullivan has become a trusted champion and critic of the American news media. In this bracing memoir, Sullivan traces her life in journalism and how trust in the mainstream press has steadily eroded.Sullivan began her career at the Buffalo News, where she rose from summer intern to editor in chief. In Newsroom Confidential she chronicles her years in the trenches battling sexism and throwing elbows in a highly competitive newsroom. In 2012, Sullivan was appointed the public editor of The New York Times, the first woman to hold that important role. She was in the unique position of acting on behalf of readers to weigh the actions and reporting of the paper's staff, parsing potential lapses in judgment, unethical practices, and thorny journalistic issues. Sullivan recounts how she navigated the paper’s controversies, from Hillary Clinton's emails to Elon Musk's accusations of unfairness to the need for greater diversity in the newsroom. In 2016, having served the longest tenure of any public editor, Sullivan left for the Washington Post, where she had a front-row seat to the rise of Donald Trump in American media and politics.With her celebrated mixture of charm, sharp-eyed observation, and nuanced criticism, Sullivan takes us behind the scenes of the nation's most influential news outlets to explore how Americans lost trust in the news and what it will take to regain it.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

    The American Old West has long been a land of legend, where history and myth intertwine to create some of the most enduring figures in popular culture. From daring gunslingers to fearless lawmen, from resilient pioneers to courageous Native American leaders, the frontier was home to individuals whose stories have been told and retold for generations. But how much of what we believe about these figures is true? Where does history end and legend begin?  
      
    The Wild West holds a unique place in American identity. It represents freedom, adventure, and the spirit of perseverance. However, the romanticized image of the frontier often overshadows the reality of life in those times. The stories of infamous outlaws and heroic sheriffs were frequently exaggerated by dime novels, traveling shows, and later, Hollywood films. While many of these characters did exist, their exploits were often transformed into grandiose tales, making them larger than life. The result is a blurred line between fact and fiction, leaving us to wonder: Were these individuals truly as heroic—or as villainous—as they are remembered?  
      
    One of the most fascinating aspects of Old West legends is their ability to evolve. A figure like Jesse James, once considered a ruthless outlaw, became a folk hero to some, seen as a rebel against authority. Likewise, lawmen like Wyatt Earp, whose life was filled with both victories and controversies, were later immortalized as fearless defenders of justice. The process of mythmaking has not only shaped how we view the past but has also influenced modern storytelling in Western films, books, and television.
