DAVID CARR

No cruzamento entre política, cultura e negócios, David Carr (Minneapolis – EUA, 1956) faz de suas reportagens no The New York Times narrativas independentes sobre os bastidores da mídia – cobriu até mesmo a recente demissão da editora-executiva do jornal, Jill Abramson. A noite da arma (2012) narra em forma de reportagem suas memórias – ou falta delas: ex-dependente químico, Carr entrevistou amigos, parentes e colegas para reconstituir os anos de vício. Em 2011, estrelou o documentário Page One – Inside The New York Times.
