authorMichelle Trauring on Nov 11, 2014

Former Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy will sign copies of his recently published book, “Bias in the Media,” on Saturday, November 15, at noon at the Westhampton Free Library, as part of its ongoing Brunch and Learn series.

Mr. Levy penned the book after switching political parties—from Democrat to Republican—as a reaction to what he calls a “seismic shift” in how he was treated by the media, according to a press release. Much of his authorial debut centers on liberal bias, illegal immigration and how “the politically correct atmosphere in the press room has helped lead to today’s border chaos.”

The signing will also include a discussion and Q&A with Mr. Levy. For more information, call (631) 288-3335 or westhamptonlibrary.net.
