Sinclair called Brass Check, published in 1919, ‘the most important and most dangerous book I have ever written.’ This full-throated exposé of the hypocrisy and outright fraud afflicting the journalism of his time makes for fascinating reading today, as many of Sinclair’s findings are applicable to the contemporary media landscape.
