Buckley, Jr. and the Rise, Betrayal, and Fall of Starr Broadcasting","description":"When people think of a corporation they don't think of its board members, they think of its powerful, charismatic public face. For Starr Broadcasting, that leader was William F. Buckley, Jr., a bestselling writer and popular conservative commentator. The men behind him were Peter and Michael Starr, Buckley's prot g s from childhood, the innovative creators and loyal heads of Starr Broadcasting, Buckley's cash cow. For a decade the Starr brothers worked faithfully to make the company profitable and an industry leader, until Buckley arranged their ousting for his own gain, a betrayal that Peter never recovered from. Decades after his brother's untimely death, Michael Starr breaks his silence to set the record straight.
