Judith Regan is a notoriety manipulator of the worst sort. As such, she was a brilliant publisher of sleazy best sellers.
But she wouldn’t be bringing these charges if she didn’t have the recordings she mentions. It’s not to the credit of Kerik or Giuliani that she was a former pal of theirs. Quite the contrary.
“But she wouldn’t be bringing these charges if she didn’t have the recordings she mentions.”
I agree... And she’s out for blood here. I’m not sure she’d even accept a settlement, if she thinks she can tear a pound of flesh out of NewsCorp. If she does have audio recordings, does the FEC get an opening to go after the company? I’m really not sure how media rules / election rules work together. Most papers will endorse a candidate, but this is different.
