If We Published It

Didn't she have something to do with Rush's first book?

Ya know, I'm sorry she did slightly suffer abuse- but her case in no way compared with victims who truly suffered abuse much worse than she did, and for her to take it upon herself to exploit suffering for her own gain at the expense of true victims was despicable! http://sacredscoop.com

Simpson keeps the advance, so Regan put a million in a murderer's pocket.

If the public hadn't reacted so strongly she would have gotten a bonus. The book was almost a done deal. They don't get that far without some approval other than the author's. She's a scapegoat.

I'm conflicted. On the one hand, the OJ book was beyond the pale, Hollywood celebrity worship and reality TV taken to gruesome lengths.

On the other hand, she was damned near the only big shot in the publishing business who could take a conservative book and make a go of it. HarperCollins is not exactly an ardent publisher of conservative books.

I hope she sets up shop for herself and publishes a few more books that fly in the face of the liberal establishment. She reminds me of Oprah Winfrey: mostly a force for good, bitten by the postmodernist publicity bug, which drains out traditional wisdom and replaces it with the ability to ride the celebrity waves. Yet that's the only kind of personality that seems to be able to reach a large audience these days.

Just like only someone like Mel Gibson was crazy enough to persuade the whole world to watch "The Passion of the Christ," riding the celebrity wave at the same time that he spat in its eye.

The statement said that the Regan publishing program and staff will continue as part of the HarperCollins General Books Group, ...,

Huh? What does this mean?

Shuddana hired her in the first place.

She was behind some good books, but this was a huge mistake. Her excuse, that she was looking for "closure" on OJ, was pathetic.
