Complete with wickedly delightful anecdotes of major and minor politicians and entertainers over the last 200 years, Gail Collins examines the evolving relationship between politicians and the press and the blurring of the lines between politicians and celebrities. Supported by extensive research and written with an entertaining flair, she speculates on how gossip reflects the current moral compass of the time, noting how a rumor, like an unpredictable summer tornado, can flatten one reputation while a similar story passes over another with hardly a rustle. \"Hilariously readable\" (\u003cem\u003eThe Economist\u003c\/em\u003e), \u003cem\u003eScorpion Tongues\u003c\/em\u003e offers sinful scandals and mild hearsay for every taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 384\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.93 x 8.06 x 5.35 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 30, 2007\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52915324617020,"sku":"9780061139628","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/7265\/1324\/files\/aklyTjM1TElKd3k5TXVmNzFSQkVzZz09.webp?v=1774361492","url":"https:\/\/barginbooks.co\/products\/scorpion-tongues-gossip-celebrity-and-american-politics-paperback","provider":"Books Fare ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
