A seminal work and examination of the psychopathology of journalism. Using a strange and unprecedented lawsuit as her larger-than-life example -- the lawsuit of Jeffrey MacDonald, a convicted murderer, against Joe McGinniss, the author of Fatal Vision, a book about the crime -- she delves into the always uneasy, sometimes tragic relationship that exists between journalist and subject. In Malcolm's view, neither journalist nor subject can avoid the moral impasse that is built into the journalistic situation. When the text first appeared, as a two-part article in The New Yorker, its thesis seemed so radical and its irony so pitiless that journalists across the country reacted as if stung.Her book is a work of journalism as well as an essay on journalism: it at once exemplifies and dissects its subject. In her interviews with the leading and subsidiary characters in the MacDonald-McGinniss case -- the principals, their lawyers, the members of the jury, and the various persons who testified as expert witnesses at the trial -- Malcolm is always aware of herself as a player in a game that, as she points out, she cannot lose. The journalist-subject encounter has always troubled journalists, but never before has it been looked at so unflinchingly and so ruefully. Hovering over the narrative -- and always on the edge of the reader's consciousness -- is the MacDonald murder case itself, which imparts to the book an atmosphere of anxiety and uncanniness. The Journalist and the Murderer derives from and reflects many of the dominant intellectual concerns of our time, and it will have a particular appeal for those who cherish the odd, the off-center, and the unsolved.

At this time of writing, The Mobi The Journalist and the Murderer has garnered 10 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Mobi is Good TO READ!

This book was loathsome from beginning to end. It begins with a broad-stroke admonishment of journalism and continues to trade in generalities and opinion stated as fact.The most regrettable part of the book is that the subject matter is fascinating. The story is lost in dense prose and overly long (yet remarkably bland) quotes and excerpts from transcripts. For all of her research, the author failed to construct a compelling narrative, despite what should have been a slam-dunk for riveting plot and conflict. What a terrible waste of potential.The author's sentences are needlessly complex, and she seems to choose words based on how exotic or esoteric they are, not whether or not they properly convey any real meaning. There's a sprinkling of references to Russian and French literature to drive home the point that the author is smart, much smarter than you. In her 15-page afterword, she speaks at length about her lawsuit with bitter defensiveness. The entire work is sophomoric in its delivery. I hope that one of her neighbors reports the abuse of her thesaurus and that the proper authorities step in to ensure it goes to a good home where it can recover and live out the rest of its days in peace.
