Greg Olear je autor, ktorý sa nebojí ponoriť do zložitých politických tém a odhaľovať pravdu. Jeho diela sa zameriavajú na odhaľovanie mocenských machinácií a na to, ako sú tieto informácie často skresľované či zatajované pred verejnosťou. Olear sa vyznačuje schopnosťou destilovať komplexné udalosti do zrozumiteľného rozprávania, čím čitateľom umožňuje lepšie pochopiť dianie okolo seba. Prostredníctvom svojich textov sa snaží informovať a podnecovať kritické myslenie v čase, keď je prístup k pravde často sťažený.
