Tim Russert is dead.

But the room was alive.

Big Ticket Washington Funerals can make such great networking opportunities. Power mourners keep stampeding down the red carpets of the Kennedy Center, handing out business cards, touching base. And there is no time to waste in a gold rush, even (or especially) at a solemn tribal event like this.

Washington—This Town—might be loathed from every corner of the nation, yet these are fun and busy days at this nexus of big politics, big money, big media, and big vanity. There are no Democrats and Republicans anymore in the nation’s capital, just millionaires. That is the grubby secret of the place in the twenty-first century. You will always have lunch in This Town again. No matter how many elections you lose, apologies you make, or scandals you endure.

In This Town, Mark Leibovich, chief national correspondent for The New York Times Magazine, presents a blistering, stunning—and often hysterically funny—examination of our ruling class’s incestuous “media industrial complex.” Through his eyes, we discover how the funeral for a beloved newsman becomes the social event of the year. How political reporters are fetishized for their ability to get their names into the predawn e-mail sent out by the city’s most powerful and puzzled-over journalist. How a disgraced Hill aide can overcome ignominy and maybe emerge with a more potent “brand” than many elected members of Congress. And how an administration bent on “changing Washington” can be sucked into the ways of This Town with the same ease with which Tea Party insurgents can, once elected, settle into it like a warm bath.

Outrageous, fascinating, and destined to win Leibovich a whole host of, er, new friends, This Town is must reading, whether you’re inside the Beltway—or just trying to get there.

《真实世界的纸牌屋》英文版原名This Town,作者是《纽约时报周刊》首席记者马克•列伊博维奇。本书由一个一个有据的传闻构成,虽不及美剧《纸牌屋》般云诡波谲,但因为真实,更加津津有味。书中一个一个华盛顿人的故事,他们置身于一个政治场中,玩着自己的”硬球“。 书出...

此书结语中直言不讳地承认:纵观华盛顿的游戏,最令人沮丧的结论是,权钱交易已经彻底地程序化,在这其间,媒体则极尽煽动之能事,成为权钱交易的有效润滑!我想问,这是不是体制问题呢?

华盛顿13年年末的must-read. 我以前也会时不时地把和The Club的proximity当作骄傲,时间长了才会发现,这是个非正常的城市,那些起起落落,名呀利呀都是过眼烟云。
