This eventually led him to found <http://whowhatwhy.com/> WhoWhatWhy.com, which covers news, in depth, without regard to the popularity of what the facts turn out to be. <http://familyofsecrets.com> A case in point: When Russ started trying to figure out how a guy like George W. Bush could get elected, the trail led to George H.W. "Poppy" Bush (well, duh), and then Russ started looking at how Poppy Bush got to be President, and then things started to really get interesting. For some odd reason, each of his usual outlets had some reason that they couldn't publish the story. After five years of research and writing, Russ finally published FAMILY OF SECRETS <http://familyofsecrets.com/> , about the Bush Family (and sooo much more, as it turns out). To hear him talk a bit about his book and how he came to write it, watch his presentation on youtube <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GVN12TbsRY&feature=player_embedded> . Start viewing <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GVN12TbsRY&feature=player_embedded> at about 17 min 45 seconds, or 24min44secs. Copies of his book Family of Secrets will be available, and he'll be glad to sign them.
