Should Bill Clinton's Publisher Have Employed A Fact Checker? (Joe Gandelman)
It certainly sounds like it might have been a good idea....Because there more and more questions being raised.
(Note: The ONLY reason The Moderate Voice is not going to read BC's book is that he does NOT read 900 page autobiographies, even though he loves autobios and especially books written by politicos. He just got two considerably shorter books by political expert Larry Sabato on Amazon.com and will read them).
The reason I don't read auto-bios is because they always tend to be self-serving.
I'm sure the publisher doesn't mind--a Clinton biography without a plethora of lies would be like a Twinkie without creme filling--and his horde of boot-lickers will be ready to defend him in any event.
Mark Noonan rather understates it in many cases. Somebody once described somebody else's autobiography as "an autohagiography". ha! ha!
On the other hand, there are a few like G. K. Chesterton's autobiography and St. Augustine's "Confessions" which are ruthlessly honest.
I'll never write an autobiography because I'd have to either make most of it up or else leave nearly everything out because it would be too @#$%^&* embarrassing. Steven Malcolm Anderson is a *&^%$#@!
I doubt that Clinton really wrote most of it.
