Here is the relevant part of the note, from the 10th page of the book's prologue:

"Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are baldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book.

"Sometimes I have let the players offer their versions, in turn allowing the reader to judge them. In other instances I have, through a consistency in the accounts and through sources I have come to trust, settled on a version of events I believe to be true."

“Some of it might be true” seems to be the media’s mantra these days

Slander with malice and intent.
Should be a very easy lawsuit to win.

At least he says it right up front!

"Dear reader - you just wasted your money... but I appreciate it very much."

What a bizarre note! Phew; maybe he’s the one who has a problem with truth and reality. How low can journalism fall?

This book is a rag — it is full of lies and yellow journalism and will be forgotten by Saturday. I am awaiting the law suit for malice before the end of the day as truthfully threatened. I trust this will not be another empty threat like the threat to Kim jung un for his repeated threats to the people of the United States. Need action here TODAY!!

Thanks for starting this thread. This information is critical for us to spread far and wide.

The author of the explosive new Trump book says he can't be sure if parts of it are true.

Oh, OK. We should all appreciate his honesty. LOL.

This sounds like a public interest disclosure that should be run before every CNN segment.

"Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House" has set the political world ablaze.

No, it's set the leftard political world ablaze as they chase after yet another certain to bring Trump down bone.

But the book's author, Michael Wolff, says he can't be sure that all of it is true.

For admitting this, he can be sure he'll be sued.

Add the book to the list of fake hate crimes committed by losers against traditional Americans.

If Michael Wolff doesn’t care if it’s true on not - it’s a standard hoax hate crime:

"July 12th, 2016 was a bright sunny day...."

AHA!!! We found one part that was true, therefore the whole thing will be found to be "mostly true" by the "fact checkers"

“In other instances I have, through a consistency in the accounts and through sources I have come to trust, settled on a version of events I believe to be true.”

Sounds like he took a page out of Obama’s book, where he created a “composite but non existing character”

Here he creates a “composite but nonexistent truth”
