One title on the list:Wag the Dog, by Larry BeinhartRead about the other entries on the list.
Originally published as "American Hero," Wag the Dog is a satire and conspiracy novel about Operation Desert Storm, positing that the whole thing was engineered to get George Bush reelected. At first ludicrous and then startling, this novel paints the Gulf War as a made-for-TV piece of Americana propaganda in an attempt to call attention to the power of the media.
Wag the Dog also made Michael Kempner's list of the five best books on public relations.
