Only "feeling duped" because her loyal minions made her say it. They were not impressed by her initial support of Frey; nor was the MSM. Oh dear....
This says as much about Random House as it does Frey and Oprrah.
I'm glad people called her on it and I'm glad she was woman enough to deal with it.
When will this Oprah show air? today?
a bunch of nuts wearing purple are outside the carter center in atlanta today to show support for an oprah nomination for a nobel peace prize. (i must say)
I still liked the book A Million Little Pieces, and James Frey has been through hell, whether he spent two hours or 87 days in jail, or whether his girlfriend slashed her wrists or hung herself.
He's a stronger person than many of us are for having come out of some serious addictions.
Yes.
For anybody who wants to get an early start on the February Oprah Book Club selection, my cousin who works in the Harpo offices says it's gonna be "I Rigoberta Menchu".

(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
O brother. He's been through Hell"? Through the drive thru more like!!

You think his writing about his addictions and recovery are not true?

You really think there was a Lilly? You do realize that the reason that Frey now claims she slashed her wrists instead of hanging herself is because journalists searched death records and found nobody who fit that description who hung herself during that time?
What's the "strength" in this clown? He's a manipulative, lying overgrown rich frat boy. That's all.
"I Rigoberta Menchu".
I'm missing the point here....kind of slow today.
Explain, oh wise owl :`)

What does that mean, exactly, a "stronger person?" He's a rich kid who went through high-end re-hab, got a sweet heart book deal via his parents, and then failed to deliver an honest book.
so she slashed her wrists, and her name wasn't Lilly, and he didn't have all those addictions, and there's no Leonard, and... .
I still liked the book, and if James Frey is a sober addict, he is a better man than I.
Owl_Eagle, tell me your cousin has a real good sense of humor...
