Focusing on the life of Dorothy Schiff, the narrative explores her role as a pioneering newspaper publisher and liberal activist from 1939 to 1976. Under her leadership, the New York Post became a key voice for New Deal liberalism while retaining its unique tabloid charm. Known as Dolly, she navigated the complexities of media and society, leaving a lasting impact on journalism and political discourse in America. The book highlights her dynamic influence in a male-dominated industry and her commitment to progressive ideals.
