The Shadow Network Exposed (w/ Anne Nelson)
The radical right has a secret hub Anne Nelson calls The Shadow Network, linking media, money, and the far right.
Do secret organizations like ALEC, the Council For National Policy, and others have more control over our democracy than you do?
Anne Nelson joined Thom to discuss just how far these connections go.
Anne Nelson is the author of Shadow Network: Media, Money, and the Secret Hub of the Radical Right.
Award-winning author and journalist Anne Nelson offers an explosive and comprehensive account of the decades-long relationship between the Republican Party and the conservative Council for National Policy (CNP), a stealth organization that relies on political activation of churches and their tax-exempt status to tighten its grip on power.
