Don Firth BS: The crisis of capitalism in the USA (214* d) RE: BS: The crisis of capitalism in the USA 05 Jul 14


I think I'd want to know a bit more about Edward Klein before I'd accept anything he says as Gospel. From what I've read, he hasn't established a very reliable reputation with his fellow journalists.

Klein has been criticized for his biography of Hillary Clinton, titled, "The Truth About Hillary: What She Knew, When She Knew It, and How Far She'll Go to Become President," which was released on June 21, 2005. Politico criticized the book for "serious factual errors, truncated and distorted quotes, and overall themes that don't gibe with any other serious accounts of Clinton's life."

The book was attacked not only by liberals, but by conservatives as well. John Podhoretz wrote in the New York Post, "Thirty pages into it, I wanted to take a shower. Sixty pages into it, I wanted to be decontaminated. And 200 pages into it, I wanted someone to drive stakes through my eyes so I wouldn't have to suffer through another word."

In National Review, James Geraghty wrote, "Folks, there are plenty of arguments against Hillary Clinton, her policies, her views, her proposals, and her philosophies. This stuff ain't it. Nobody on the right, left, or center ought to stoop to this level."

Sounds like Klein has it in for Hillary.
