Description
Veteran White House reporter April Ryan thought she had seen everything in her two decades as a White House correspondent. And then came the Trump administration. In Under Fire, Ryan takes us inside the confusion and chaos of the Trump White House to understand how she and other reporters adjusted to the new normal. She takes us inside the policy debates, the revolving door of personnel appointments, and what it is like when she, as a reporter asking difficult questions, finds herself in the spotlight, becoming part of the story. With the world on edge and a country grappling with a new controversy almost daily, Ryan gives readers a glimpse into current events from her perspective, not only from inside the briefing room but also as a target of those who want to avoid answering probing questions. After reading her new book, readers will have an unprecedented inside view of the Trump White House and what it is like to be a reporter Under Fire.

Advance Praise
“Journalist April Ryan provides accurate, historic
information and perspective for anyone contemplating the 2018 elections
and beyond. Under Fire is a must read for truth seekers and those who teach others the difference between media spin, personal commentary and current political facts.”
— Martin Luther King, III
"April
Ryan is one of the most respected journalists in Washington for a
reason -- she’s tough as nails, has a wealth of experience, and
relentlessly pursues the truth. The qualities that make her a great
reporter have also made her a frequent target of the Trump
administration. In Under Fire,
April Ryan deftly navigates these attacks to deliver a
characteristically impartial account of an unprecedented time: she not
only documents the chaos, confusion, and turmoil of the Trump era, but
speaks to our common values, the enduring and urgent need for
truth-tellers, and how the most difficult challenges can bring out the
best in who we are. She is a living example of how the fire of adversity
often reveals and forges greatness."
— Senator Cory Booker
"April’s experience, knowledge, and judgment are on full display in this book. She understands the political process at the highest levels and has never been afraid to ask the tough questions off-record or with the eyes of the world on her or when her courage and mettle have been put to the test. All of these skills come together in a compelling volume that blends her insights with the very questions that we should all be confronting at this unique moment in history."
— Thurgood Marshall, Jr.
