I have the greatest respect for April Ryan, for the work she does, and for taking so many bullets in the name of a free and open press that represents all people, especially the marginalized. When I watch WH press conferences, I almost always keep my eye on her, just to see her not-so-poker face reactions to the press secretary’s BS.

But I had a hard time reading the book. It read very disjointedly with non-sequitors sprinkled through it. I wondered if her editor even went through the manuscript or if they just hurried to get it to press. 😬 Sorry, April... I still love you as a reporter and CNN contributor!
