Michael Cervantes strives to rise through the journalism ranks at America's top newspapers, and his aggressive investigative skills catch the attention of his corporate bosses. Then he lands his dream assignment: cover the presidential primary campaign of the Democratic front runner. But weeks on end away from the warmth of his Miami home begin to take a toll on the young reporter. Michael uncovers evidence that could end the political career of a presidential front-runner. But Michael's own actions raise questions and ultimately lead to the places and consequences he fears most. Primary Sins tells the story of the highest political and journalistic ambitions, undone by lust and greed.
Oscar Corral wonders daily what would have happened if newspaper companies had invested in google and YouTube instead of, well, just about everything else they invested in and spent lavishly on while they controlled information monopolies in their respective markets. Living the implosion of the newspaper industry made Corral an early subject of the cruel but relentless socio-economic phenomenon known as "disruption" from technology. He got disrupted the hell awake when his newspaper stopped hiring young talent and spent a decade instead downsizing veteran journalists. As an investigative reporter for the Miami Herald, Corral fought corruption. As an entrepreneur, he fights his own insecurities and doubts. Corral can't stand these trite bios where people try to cram their pedigree into a paragraph, only to come off as pompous and slightly pitiful. So screw it. He writes because he can't help it. Call it therapy. Please forgive typos and grammatical errors that may have been overlooked in the substandard, low-budget editing this book received before being published.
