“Under Fire: Reporting from the Front Lines of the Trump White House” by April Ryan

In her latest book, the veteran White House reporter offers a blunt look at recent life in the press room—and settles some scores. “I was in a so-called friendship with a duplicitous per­son,” she writes at the start of a long account of her frayed relationship with Omarosa Manigault-Newman. “I cringe even when I think about it.” But don’t let that stop you from asking about it during this appearance. After all, Ryan is herself known for posing tough questions.
