The problem of course being that it's so much more likely to be true than false.
Are you saying Schecter was telling the truth when he said he was seeking redemption for contributing and supporting McCain. Why would he be seeking redemption if he didn't feel like he was hoodwinked, another term he used, certainly an embittering experience.
...Schecter would lie and risk his journalistic reputation over.
I don't believe he is a journalist. Journalists report. This guy smears.
He is a political operative who guest blogs.
He does have a degree from the Wharton School of Business though which might explain the opportunistic timing and marketing strategy for his book.
Lets review:
He was recruited to write the book.
The publisher publishes progressive titles and is linked to Soros and Lewis.
His book was marketed with the big noise strategy of blanketing the left blogosphere with prerelease tidbits from his book including the undocumented anonymously sourced slur about trollops and Cindy. Three reporters allegedly sat on the story for 16 years? Please.
He certainly stood to profit from sensationalizing his book.
