Reviews
"An explosive, comprehensive account of the 30-year relationship between the conservative Council for National Policy, which promotes a stringent political ideology based on Southern Baptist morals, and the Republican Party . . . Nelson meticulously and chronologically traces the connections between the CNP and a host of Republican leaders and organizations. This is an absolutely momentous piece of investigative journalism." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "[Nelson] follows the money ... [ Shadow Network ] raises significant red flags that should alarm everyone who believes in democracy." -- Kirkus Reviews "If you like being scared, read Anne Nelson's Shadow Network . It's the alarming story of how Christian fundamentalists coalesced into a political force and have essentially taken over the Trump administration. . . . The task of putting this whole story together is nothing shy of monumental." -- San Francisco Review of Books "A stunning and terrifying history of the Council for National Policy." -- Literary Hub "The exploitation of modern media by energy oligarchs and their allies has brought us to a critical moment for democracy and indeed human life. Around the world, the agents of climate change use technology to kill fact and monopolize values. Anne Nelson's work on middle America in Shadow Network reveals a political trend that threatens both our form of government and our species." -- TIMOTHY SNYDER, Levin Professor of History at Yale University and author of ON TYRANNY and THE ROAD TO UNFREEDOM ""How fundamentalists made their peace with Mammon, the NRA, and environmental catastrophe' could be the subtitle of this riveting story. Shadow Network abounds with startling revelations, not least about this alliance's ties to the Koch brothers and its cynical takeover of media outlets in hard-pressed parts of the country that wield outsized power in the U.S. Senate and the Electoral College. Want to understand how so many Americans turned against truth? Read this book."" -- Nancy Maclean, William H. Chafe Professor of History and Public Policy at Duke University and author of DEMOCRACY IN CHAINS " Shadow Network is extensively researched, entertainingly argued, and deeply alarming. Anne Nelson shines a relentless spotlight on the Council for National Policy, the nexus of a movement that deploys political communications and advanced technology to mobilize reactionary religion in its quest for power." -- Katherine Stewart, author of THE GOOD NEWS CLUB and THE POWER WORSHIPPERS " Shadow Network belongs on the narrow shelf of indispensable books about the right-wing assault on democracy. In the course of unearthing the pitiless, cynical alliance of plutocrats and theocrats that has remade American politics, Anne Nelson breaks new ground about the Right's under-the-radar media networks, their fat cats and business models, and their exploitation of the collapse of small-city newspapers. Anyone who wants to understand how oligarchs buddied up with cultural backlashers behind the scenes will learn much from these pages . " -- Todd Gitlin, author of THE SIXTIES and THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING, "Immersive . . . Suzanne's Children vividly dramatizes the stakes of acting morally in a time of brutality." -- Wall Street Journal "Haunting . . .

You can''t convert anxiety into votes without cash, and Nelson does an excellent job following the money . . .

Synopsis
The chilling story of the covert group that masterminds the Radical Right's ongoing assault on America's airwaves, schools, environment, and, ultimately, its democracy., "Reveals a political trend that threatens both our form of government and our species." - Timothy Snyder, author of ON TYRANNY "Riveting.... Want to understand how so many Americans turned against truth? Read this book." Nancy Maclean, author of DEMOCRACY IN CHAINS In 1981, emboldened by Ronald Reagan's election, a group of some fifty Republican operatives, evangelicals, oil barons, and gun lobbyists met in a Washington suburb to coordinate their attack on civil liberties and the social safety net. These men and women called their coalition the Council for National Policy. Over four decades, this elite club has become a strategic nerve center for channeling money and mobilizing votes behind the scenes. Its secretive membership rolls represent a high-powered roster of fundamentalists, oligarchs, and their allies, from Oliver North, Ed Meese, and Tim LaHaye in the Council's early days to Kellyanne Conway, Ralph Reed, Tony Perkins, and the DeVos and Mercer families today. In Shadow Network , award-winning author and media analyst Anne Nelson chronicles this astonishing history and illuminates the coalition's key figures and their tactics. She traces how the collapse of American local journalism laid the foundation for the Council for National Policy's information war and listens in on the hardline broadcasting its members control. And she reveals how the group has collaborated with the Koch brothers to outfit Radical Right organizations with state-of-the-art apps and a shared pool of captured voter data - outmaneuvering the Democratic Party in a digital arms race whose result has yet to be decided. In a time of stark and growing threats to our most valued institutions and democratic freedoms, Shadow Network is essential reading.
