Explosive Email Shows Anti-Palin Author McGinniss, Random House Likely Published Literary Hoax
Big Government.com ^ | Sept 22, 2011 | Andrew Breitbart

Posted on 09/22/2011 5:25:30 AM PDT by libstripper

The awful launch week for the over-hyped, expected bestseller The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, by controversial author Joe McGinniss, just got worse. Much worse.

After a week of universally scathing pans from the reflexively anti-Palin establishment media, McGinniss now faces the fight of his literary life: the accusation that he seems to have knowingly submitted a book to his publisher, Crown/Random House, that was filled with unproved “tawdry gossip” and rumors that lacked “factual evidence.”

Mark Levin just posted Breitbart’s expose’ on his Facebook page. I’m sure that he’s going to have a lot to say about it on tonight’s show.

Sarah's a public person - that makes it almost impossible for her to sue. But that's not the issue. Worse things are going on...

McGinniss is a typical liberal. He hates people who don't hold his opinions and will use anything to destroy that person - especially gossip and innuendo.

He hates Sarah and everything she stands for...

Liberal elites like McGinniss are small minded bigots. They feel that anyone who isn't wallowing in the liberal gutter must be exposed for not being perfect. Sarah's human - she's not perfect - yet she has values she tries to live up to ... (the last perfect person to live on earth could also walk on water...) Sarah's humanness - AND her desire to attempt to live a moral life - make her a target for liberal elites like McGinniss

How?

His standards for his liberal elite friends is nonexistent - for conservatives it's 'total perfection'. If we looked into McGinniss's life we would probablly find endless filth, dishonesty, lies and damage to other humans.

Why is HIS standard for himself and his fellow elites so low - and for Sarah and conservatives so high? For this guy to act 'oh so shocked' about anything is laughable. What's going on in their dark dank creepy little hellholes of brains to create such perverse double standards?

Easy. His defense - if that what you can call an amoral whine - would be that he never presented himself as being better.

The liberal logic goes like this: If a person is a serial killer - BUT ADMITS to being a killer - and admits to enjoying torture THEN HE IS MORE MORAL than the honest hard working citizen who tries to live a moral life but sometimes stumbles.

Yep, in liberal world the serial killer is often more moral than the minister who throws a gum wrapper out the window or a car. It's how they justify the likes of Porn Peddler Larry Flynt and destroyer of currencies like George Soros. Liberals 'feel' each person defines right and wrong based on creating their own standard then living up or down to that standard. So if the 'standard' is low, the person is 'moral'. Someone who has values and works to live a moral life has those values used against them. The ONLY way to win in liberal elite/evil land is to be totally morally bankrupt - and to joyfully wallow in human debasement.

It's how they can look up to the porn peddler Larry Flynt. It's how liberal elites push evil ...

RE :”Sarah's a public person - that makes it almost impossible for her to sue

I found this :

How to prove libel: There are several ways a person must go about proving that libel has taken place. For example, in the United States, the person first must prove that the statement was false. Second, that person must prove that the statement caused harm. And, third, they must prove that the statement was made without adequate research into the truthfulness of the statement. These steps are for an ordinary citizen. In the case of a celebrity or public official trying to prove libel, they must prove the first three steps, and must (in the United States) prove the statement was made with the intent to do harm, or with reckless disregard for the truth. Usually specifically referred to as “proving malice ”.[17]

I note that MSNBC was headlining the Todd Palin divorce rumor earlier this morning. That’s how a smear is done - you don’t get in trouble for reporting that a rumor exists, and you don’t get in trouble for asserting that somebody else is saying something if, in fact, they are. Mind you, media that do this tend to lose credibility but in this case you can’t lose what you don’t have in the first place.

Jesse Griffen and Levi Johnston were the ones spreading the divorce lies around, as far back as 2009. Griffen has re-fed that garbage to McGinniss, who lapped it up, and now MSNBC is once again playing on it through McGinnis.

Key phrase: “I didn’t live this long and work this hard over so many decades to wind up as AlaskaWTF between hard covers.” So maybe he did...what other option did he see than to publish anyway, get paid, and see what happened?
