WASHINGTON, Feb. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ Writer and media strategist Ryan Holiday's latest book, Conspiracy: Peter Thiel, Hulk Hogan, Gawker, and the Anatomy of Intrigue, tells the inside (and bizarre) true story of Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel's secret - and ultimately successful - plot to destroy Gawker Media. Holiday will share his findings and discuss what he believes the impact of this sordid saga will be on the First Amendment at a National Press Club Headliners Book Event on Thursday, March 15 at 6:30 p.m.
