The sick draw of Spin Cycle is that it's simply a day to day account of non-stop crisis management and all the petty little offenses involved in the front lines of a character war. Reading it is like watching a car wreck in slow motion: hypnotic, memorable and highly informative, but thoroughly nauseating and at times dehumanizing in its endless gory detail.
Howard Kurtz gives us a detailed inside account of the interactions between elite media and the Clinton administration during the mid 90's. Based in large part on interviews with Clinton's Press Secretary Mike McCurry, Spin Cycle paints a damning picture of the blas� corruption of image politics. The elitist contempt for democracy combined with the irresponsible careerism of all parties documented leaves the reader with a distinct feeling that our government is nothing but a caricature of itself.
In the electric Washington atmosphere, each side of the information battle was doing everything it could get away with in order to control the next day's headlines. This was no-holes barred trench warfare, with investigative journalists frantically digging through the White House dumpster, McCurry totally controlling access to the President and parceling quotes to his favored reporters, Ken Starr illegally leaking juicy scandal bits like a pornographic sieve. After all, these were professionals at the height of their careers; nobody expected anything less from the best reporters, lawyers, and image consultants money could buy.
