My Facebook friend Lynn Chu, commenting on the remaindering of iconographies of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as well as the nonstop and self-defeating promotion of James Comey's book:
It's ironic that the more Comey talks the more everyone realizes what a political sleazeball animal he was and how much he tipped the scales whenever he felt his own personal self-interest rising. The Discreet Charm of the First Amendment. Smarmy unwarranted book deals with zero writerly integrity can backfire, you know. Let's just hope the publisher doesn't take a bath that will then have to be taken out of all the real writers. It very well might. Because it's costly to do these stupid book tours. Of course they're probably not paying for it. I'm sure Soros or somebody like that has it all covered.
She incidentally refers to something I've long questioned. Who is paying for these overly-generous advances to Democratic politicians and their operatives for books that are unlikely to repay the publishers what they've advanced? How will Bertelsmann ever sell enough copies of the sure to be unedifying books by the Obamas to recoup the $60 million reportedly advanced them? It's a foreign publisher in Germany where privacy laws are strict, so it may be difficult to find out who, if not Bertelsmann, is kicking in this much to two people who on their own can barely parse a literate sentence. Nevertheless, we can't dismiss the suspicion that it is bribery, pay back or money laundering. Are there any investigative reporters out there who've even asked the publisher about this?
