Triple Cross: How bin Laden's Master Spy Penetrated the CIA, the Green Berets, and the FBI--and Why Patrick Fitzgerald Failed to Stop Him (Hardcover)
Fitzie's definitely in a snit. New release due June 16. Tick, tick, tick ......
Excerpt: from one of the reviews
###
The best part of Triple Cross is the way Lance weaves together the different strands of the 9/11 story and enhances them with his own original reporting on each. For example, the book quotes from numerous interviews Lance conducted with Tony Shaffer, Curt Weldon, and other members of the Able Danger team. While not a full history of Able Danger, it has by far the most complete version in any book published to date.

I’ll always be suspicious of what went on with Able Danger.
Fitz is a hack. He is worried about the truth coming out.
What goes around...

Is this the Fitz that went in front of national TV and knowingly, falsely, accused Scooter Libby of committing a crime and then refused to indict him for it?
I’ll believe Lance before I would believe the dishonorable and dishonest Fitz.
Well somebody screwed up in the 90’s.
Let him sue! That will double their sales and he will get nothing.
Victoria Toensing picked Fitzgerald apart in the Washington Post:

But, I think it is interesting from the standpoint of having a sitting US Attorney publicly threaten to sue a private company, civilly. I don't know if this isn't some kind of precedent.
I’ll check this out later.
Thanks.
Hey Patrick, I’ll bet you Scooter Libby wishes that it was only a book that disparaged him. At least your freedom, family and career wasn’t taken from you.
What comes around, goes around.
