PLUNDER: Investigating Our Economic Calamity and the Subprime Scandal - Hardcover
DANNY SCHECHTER, "The News Dissector" has spent decades as a truth teller in the media, with leading media companies and as an independent filmmaker with the award-winning independent company Globalvision. A graduate of Cornell and the London School of Economics, Schechter was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard and a multiple Emmy Award winner at ABC News, where he was among the first to cover the S&L crisis. In 2007, his film IN DEBT WE TRUST was the first to expose Wall Street's connection to subprime loans, predicting the economic crisis that this book investigates. Schechter is a blogger, editor of Mediachannel.org, and author of nine books. He has reported from 53 countries, and lives in Gotham. He owns no derivatives or tranches.

From the Back Cover:
From the author of THE MORE YOU WATCH THE LESS YOU KNOW, NEWS DISSECTOR and WHEN NEWS LIES
From the Inside Flap:
Americans under a burden that many will never crawl out of.
* PLUNDER identifies some of the profiteers and calls for an investigation of those behind this shrewdly engineered subprime scheme. * PLUNDER indicts the regulators who enabled the crisis and the media that missed it. * PLUNDER advocates a debt-relief movement in America and argues that such a movement would resonate across the political spectrum.
