Summary: We talk with New Yorker reporter Jane Mayer about her acclaimed book about the Koch Brothers and the network they've mobilized for political influence, Dark Money:The Hidden History of the Billionaires Behind the Rise of the Radical Right.<br> <br> Then, we replay our 2013 interview with filmmaker Tia Lessin, about the documentary she co-directed with Carl Deal, Citizen Koch. It's about how the Koch Bros. and their rightwing advocacy organization, Americans For Prosperity, helped Wisconsin governor Scott Walker beat back a recall campaign after he devastated public employee union rights.
