Part 3 of 4. Parts One and Two showed you what the buildings cost. Part Three shows you who's paying to shape how you hear about it.

Inside this one: the Sierra Club's own $40 million funding crisis, and the pivot that followed it. A consulting firm that can stand up a "local" coalition website in a week without ever putting its name on it. A journalism grant that names the villain before a single word gets reported. And the Texas financial machine rising to fund it all — three stock exchanges, a pipeline billionaire, a headquarters relocation announced five days before five hundred people showed up to fight the thing it's moving toward.

Four chapters. Advocacy, architecture, journalism, money. Almost nobody in this stretch of the book is lying to you. They're just not telling you everything.

Who pays for the thing we all use?
