OverviewPermanent midnight meets all the President's men. Award-winning journalist Jason Leopold reveals the parallel addictions of breaking a news story and scoring drugs. The cut-throat worlds of journalism, politics and high finance are laid bare by Jason Keopold, whose addictive tendencies led him from a life of drug abuse and petty crime to become an award-winning investigative journalist who exposed some of the biggest corporate and political scandals in recent American history. While he exposed high-rolling hucksters and double-dealing politicians, Leopold hid the secrets of his own felonious past, terrified that he would be discovered. When the news junkie closed in on his biggest story - one that implicated a Bush administration member - he found himself pilloried by angry colleagues and the President's press secretary, all attempting to destroy his career.
