DESCRIPTION:Ken Silverstein, Washington Editor, Harper’s Magazine \n\nIn the halls of 
 Congress, who is willing to promote the interests of those regimes most 
 marked by repression and corruption? Posing as a representative of a 
 fictional firm with investments in the natural gas fields of Turkmenistan, 
 investigative journalist Ken Silverstein met with top K Street lobbying 
 entities with the goal of transforming Turkmenistan’s image into an 
 emerging democracy and dollar-friendly market. In his new book, 
 Turkmeniscam, Silverstein examines the covert PR work of Washington 
 lobbyists and how the power to sway public opinion can be easily bought.
