  1. […] Robin Pogrebin is a reporter at the New York Times Culture Desk and co-authored the book The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation which outlines what a mistake was made in his appointment. For Pogrebin and her co-author, it was the desire to get more facts and the truth that was obscured by the pre-conceptions of people on both sides of the political spectrum during the Kavanaugh hearings.
