Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Simpson, a member of the Priesthood, was known as an aggressive reporter skilled at uncovering corruption in politics, business, and government. He was invited to speak at a prestigious conference in 2009 alongside some of his profession's biggest names. #2 By the 1990s, online news organizations were appearing and readers and advertisers began flocking to them. The newspaper industry began to collapse and papers nationwide were laying off hundreds of reporters and cutting back on expenses. #3 After the 9/11 attacks, Simpson made terrorist financing his beat, and he wrote articles examining how terrorist groups were moving money to finance their activities by using loopholes in the international banking system or sham charities. #4 Simpson developed a network of private operatives who became sources for his next reporting obsessions: the financial and political worlds inhabited by oligarchs and Russian criminals. One of those articles featured the image of a Russian oil company executive, who after a hearty lunch of dumplings and shots of vodka, keeled over dead.
