The popular CNN commentator takes on the no-good, the bad, and the ugly in America today.
Two million viewers watch Jack Cafferty’s "The Cafferty Files" segments on CNN’s The Situation Room every afternoon. From Bush to big business, from the Beltway to Baghdad, from Hurricane Katrina to House Speaker Pelosi, from Tehran to Tel Aviv, no subject is immune from Cafferty’s trademark sardonic, curmudgeonly, right-on scrutiny.
Now, in his first book, the provocative and refreshingly unpredictable CNN personality goes after the overly powerful people who screw up–no matter where they may be. Whether he’s writing about the latest outrages in Iraq or global warming–corporate scandals, constitutional crises, or lobbyist misdoings on both sides of the aisle–Cafferty tackles the frauds, felons, liars, and losers who are doing their best to harm America–and explains why they won’t succeed. Cafferty spares nothing and no one as he lasers in on hot-button issues that will be generating debate in the news and in the 2008 election campaign, including illegal immigration and ethics reform.
Capturing Cafferty at his outspoken best, It’s Getting Ugly Out There will be highly satisfying reading for Cafferty’s many fans–and is certain to win him legions of new ones as well.
