![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Recently, Taibbi made headlines for breaking the news of The Twitter Files-a set of internal Twitter documents-in a riveting investigative series on the platform itself. What ties everything together for Taibbi, what much of his work, books, and talks are ultimately about, is unravelling that often intangible thread of inequality-which can be found in every aspect of American society today. He has both the professional chops and the hard-hitting style to piece together the problems behind a fractured America in ways other writers on the topic can’t, acting as both an accessible, entertaining public intellectual and academic for the everyman. In talks, Taibbi paints an alarming portrait of politics, media, and culture, while providing a way forward against our most urgent crises.Ī vivid, brazen writer whose work tackles the most pressing contemporary issues with the urgency they deserve-be they political, financial, or societal-Matt Taibbi is just as riveting a speaker as his award-winning, wry journalism would suggest. His recent book, Hate, Inc., is a turbocharged take on how the media twists the truth to pit us against each other. One of the smartest-and funniest-chroniclers of the rise of Trump, growing inequality, and Wall Street excess, Matt Taibbi is the author of four New York Times bestsellers, and an award-winning columnist for Rolling Stone. ![]()
