ISBN: 9781888363876.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn acclaimed biographer takes on one of the worlds most elusive media moguls in Citizen Newhouse. The harvest of four years and over 400 interviews, Carol Felsenthals book is an unauthorized investigative biography that paints a tough yet even-handed portrait.\nHere is the father, Sam Newhouse, who developed a formula for creating newspaper monopolies in small metropolitan markets and turned it into a huge family fortune. And the sons: Si in the magazine business, with his crown jewels, The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and Vogue, and Donald, who runs the familys newspaper and cable television companies.\nFocusing on Sis life and career, Citizen Newhouse takes the measure of one of Americas most powerful yet unexamined figures. Felsenthal shows how Sis quirky behavior as a shy and awkward outsider has had a far-reaching impact on the properties he owns, affecting—and in the opinion of some, compromising—the quality of the Newhouse \"product\" across the country and the world. Felsenthal shines a light on the breathtaking changes that have taken place among Si’s top editors, and the fabulous perks available to members of this elite. She also lays bare the role played by Roy Cohn in the affairs of both father and son.\nCitizen Newhouse provides a fascinating account of powerful and glamorous lives—and their impact on the newspapers and magazines we read every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Seven Stories Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45253843157045,"sku":"ByrdShop_1888363878","price":104.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781888363876_168b052f-130a-4c62-924e-15284f3d9899.jpg?v=1779948357","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/citizen-newhouse-portrait-of-a-media-merchant-9781888363876","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
