    The Media Under the Microscpe
  

*by A***Z on Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2018*

A Private War is a fascinating book about the media, good and bad. Marie Colvin's story is the first in the book but it is not a book about her. The book looks at a variety of people from Donald Trump, Roy Cohn, Richard Jewell, Mahlia and others who have been examined under the media microscope. Many times it is not a flattering portrayal of the media in general. Over half the stories in the book you can say the media was to blame for making a situation worse.Marie Colvin's story is wonderfully told. If you see the movie, the book and the story have more humor than the film. There are instances where Colvin is more macho than the men and braver too. Her story is tragic and hopefully, one day, she will have justice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The chapter on Marie Colvin is riveting but the two chapters on Trump are extremely illuminating.
  

*by W***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2019*

I bought this book thinking it was just about Marie Colvin. The real treasure within the pages however is the writing of Marie Brenner. An author without a huge Twitter following, not that this is critical but it is a little surprising. The movie of the same name is based on Brenner's work about Marie Colvin and it is also a fine body of work. Where this book really opens eyes though, is her chapters on Trump. It explains with perfect mastery how Trump came to be the poster boy for chaos "leadership," if what he does in the White House could be considered leadership. The non-biased writing in these two chapters made me wish they'd have been mandatory reading for every American of voting age in 2016; hindsight. The rest of the book is a solid portrayal of Brenner's subjects, fact based reporting, and an engaging style of prose that keeps the reader wanting to learn more.

    Riveting and Tragic, the Story of the Remarkable Marie Colvin Should Be Known
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2020*

The riveting and tragic story of the murder of renowned journalist Marie Colvin in Syria. This is an important story to read. I highly recommend this book.
