Ebook: Media Meddlers: The Real Truth About the Murder Case Against Rubin “Hurricane” Carter

Media Meddlers is a provocative book that not only addresses one of the nation's most controversial murder cases, but also indicts a sacred institution— the media—for the way some of its members used the power of the First Amendment to turn justice into injustice. Seldom has there been written a book that so clearly exposes the abuse of freedom of speech.Early on the morning of June 17, 1966, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, then at the height of his career as a professional middleweight boxer, and his friend, young John Artis, walked into the Lafayette Grill in Paterson, New Jersey, and blasted away with a shotgun and .32 caliber pistol, killing two men and a woman. Another man, shot through the head, miraculously survived.
