Email reveals McGinnis and Random House likely published a hoax

Posted by The Right Scoop The Right Scoop on September 22nd, 2011 in Politics | 175 Comments

Big Government got their hands on an email from McGinnis that shows him in a bit of a panic over his soon-to-be-published tale of lies about Sarah Palin. The thing is, he had no proof for his lies and was desperately seeking out something that could be seen as substantiation. Somehow, the lies ended up in the book anyway:

In the email below, sent in January of 2011, McGinniss reveals that his manuscript, then under legal review at Crown/Random House, could not prove its most headline-grabbing allegations. And yet, many of these “salacious stories” that lacked “proof” (in McGinniss’s own words) ended up in the book, and on televisions everywhere during the author’s current media tour … without proper sourcing, and without any apparent new evidence to support them.

McGinniss’s panicked state is evidenced by the identity of the recipient to whom he sent his email of distress. Jesse Griffin was the author of an obscure, low-rent, and now-defunct anti-Palin blog that obsessed over Trig Palin’s maternity–claiming, without any evidence, that Sarah Palin was not Trig’s mother.

Was Random House aware that its prized author was making a desperate overtime bid to save face? And if so, why did it allow him to come forth with most of those tawdry accusations without proof or proper sourcing?

Here’s a snippet from the email:

No one has ever provided factual evidence that:

a) Todd had sex with a hooker, or with anyone else outside his marriage.

b) Sarah had an affair with Brad Hanson, or anyone else.

c) Track was a druggie who enlisted in the army to avoid a jail term. Or that he vandalized Wasilla school buses.

d) Willow was involved in the vandalism of the empty house in Meadow Lakes. Or that Sarah rushed back from Hawaii to put the lid on that.

e) Trig is not Sarah’s natural born child.

f) Bristol was promiscuous as a high schooler and drank and used drugs, or became pregnant again after Tripp’s birth.

    Has anyone ever tried to investigate Hussein’s fascination with skinny lanky Southeast Asian ( Indian+Paki) men with pouty pink lips ?

    My wife and I were listening to Mark Levin when he was talking about some of the salacious charges alluded to in that book. My wife said some of the gossip rags at the check-out counters were also publishing some atrocious articles about Sarah and Todd considering a divorce. The only divorce from these shysters is the divorce from reality.

      Todd Palin is one of the top searches right now, I clicked on to see what it was about…yep, the google searches showed this book and it’s filthy lies as truth. The comments are staggering….I couldn’t read just ignorance and keep my BP normal.

      • K m

        You DO know that Todd didn’t write that “statement” about Joe’s book right? It was written by Sarah’s old blogger, Rebecca Mansour without his knowledge.

        Just like the statement written by Brad Hanson wasn’t written by HIM either. He had no clue it was released supposedly by him, until questioned by a reporter.

      THAT would be great! If only Palin would sue, but she can’t, because all of it is true. Why do you think she never sued Andrew Sullivan, Steve Schmidt, Brad Scharlott, Laura Novak, Jesse Griffin, Frank Bailey, Geoffrey Dunne (and on and on….)???? Some have even challenged her to sue…. crickets. You realize when the Palins respond to this stuff they never deny any accusation, they just issue a blanket statement attacking the source. They really can’t believe they’ve gotten away with what they have, for as long as they have.

        Muskie ran for the ’72 Democratic nomination. When he got to NH the press ran stories that he had anti-Canadian sentiments (Canuck Letter) and that his wife was an angry drunk. Muskie lost it and broke down in tears in front of the cameras.

And idiots who buy tabloids at the check out counter would believe it, just like they believe aliens are among us and that we really don’t exist…. blah blah blah.

    A respectable news aggregator here in Canada picked up on the McGuinness story from the UK’s Daily Mail -their sources were the National Enquirer. Here’s the link to the garbage from that article. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2040110/Todd-Palin-file-divorce-advisers-tell-Sarah-White-House-dream-over.html

    Now that it has been confirmed that this book is the trash we all knew it was, the likes of Barnes and Noble and other large booksellers both in the US and Canada should be contacted, shown this – maybe enough pressure from book lovers and lovers of the truth will cause them to pull this tripe.

      Have you read the book? I thought it was excellent. If you don’t live in Alaska, then you probably don’t know that it was right on point. If you had checked out any of the stories, you would know they were true. Documented facts on most of the book. Of course he didn’t put some of the things in like $Palin lets the villagers starve and go without heat, when she was governor… Or I could have missed it. Most of what was it the book we as in Alaskans already knew about.

Read the book, read why Alaskans are terrified of the Palins and their AIP buddies, read the stories of the many people who have been destroyed by the Palins, and go on the record (after all, they’ve already been trashed, what more do they have to lose?) Read it, or you don’t have a right to critique.

      The email proves that creepy joe couldn’t substantiate any of the lies you clowns fed to him. The book was already in the editing process when this desperate email went out.

      A little background on “Joltin’ Joe” Mcguinnis: “But McGinniss also has a reputation for being another type of journalist. Two decades ago, McGinniss was sued by former Army doctor Jeffery MacDonald for breach of contract after McGinniss agreed to write a book about MacDonald’s attempt to clear his name, after he was accused of killing his pregnant wife and two small children.

      The resulting civil trail showed that McGinniss had regularly deceived MacDonald to ensure his protagonist kept talking for his book. He also told MacDonald not to talk to other journalists interested in his story. McGinniss, however, had long become convinced of MacDonald’s guilt and penned “Fatal Vision,” in which he portrayed MacDonald as a cold-blooded, pathological narcissist. (MacDonald was convicted of murdering his family, although he continues to maintain his innocence.)

      The case was later settled out of court after MacDonald’s first suit ended in a hung jury, but the ethical concerns highlighted by the case became the heart of New Yorker reporter Janet Malcolm’s now classic dissection of the journalist-subject relationship, “The Journalist and the Murderer.”

      Today, a trio of authors says that the unscrupulous McGinnis portrayed in “The Journalist and the Murderer” is very real. They allege that the bestselling journalist leaked a manuscript of their tell-all Palin book – The New York Times bestseller “Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin” – to destroy any chance it would be published and compete with his own forthcoming Palin exposé, “The Rogue.” McGinniss admits he received and distributed the manuscript, but maintains that the idea that he did so to hurt the authors’ chance at publication is absurd because the authors were nobodies, whose work presented no threat to his book’s success. Truthout has obtained numerous emails written by McGinniss surrounding this incident that contradict his story and, once again, paint a damning picture of the journalist’s ethics, as first exposed by Malcolm.”

    That email, if it hasn’t been altered or otherwise tampered with, has a 1/11 date, so how can you be sure that the subject was not verified in the intervening 8 mos it took to wrap up the book? And a team of lawyers vetted this book; if anyone has a problem with it, why not sue?

    I sure hope the people that say Sarah wasn’t actually pregnant are correct. I would feel a lot better knowing that she didn’t deliberately try to have a ‘miscarriage at 71/2 or eight months, and let the poor baby die, gasping for air.

    No, no Mrs Palin would not do that.
    She would not drive past hospitals with fully equipped neonatal Units. Id rather she be a liar(which we already know she is) than a murderer.

    We have no proof she is a murderer. I mean, water in a gas tank of an air plane? It was probable just rain water, don’t you think. Poor Curtis Menard. He was such a good pilot, too. Well, at least he got a sports center named after him.

    I am beginning to wonder why we even answer these outrages statements made on this blog.

    These people who say these things about Palin, or anyone else should be totally ignored and given an Obama Bumper Sticker and sent home.

    Nothing new here, the national media is (and has been) dirty and corrupt for some time now. They have successfully (convinced the drones and willfully ignorant) made lies and rumors stick as truth to the Palin family. If you don’t watch Fox Cable News or listen to Conservative Talk Radio you have no way of knowing the truth. The National Media is all for Socialism and they will use any dirty trick or lie to make their Marxist Socialist Utopia a reality. True Conservatives know better, Socialism has NEVER worked and it won’t work here in the USA either. In 2012 we must defeat these Anti-American scumbags that call themselves Democrats/Liberals/Moderate Conservatives. Tea Party principals and values is the only solution to solving our problems. God Bless all True Conservatives, the rest can move back to where they’re fore fathers came from, we don’t need you.

    Sounds to me like McGinniss wanted verifiable sources – not innuendo. If it couldn’t be substantiated, it didn’t go in the book. And the problem with that is…?

    Update: – Random House ‘Rogue’ Scandal Update: McGinniss Confirms, Griffin Fumes, ‘Hooker’ Responds

    Joel Pollack writes in part:

    McGinniss did not, apparently, describe to Mediaite what new facts, unavailable to him on January 27, 2011, had emerged to justify the publication of allegations he described at that time as “tawdry gossip” and lacking “factual evidence.”

    A close reading of the book suggests that the only new “evidence” to emerge concerned Trig Palin’s purportedly “faked” birth, a conspiracy theory McGinniss admits he cannot prove. McGinniss cites “blogs” and anonymous residents of Wasilla as sources for his claim that “more and tougher questions about Trig’s birth” emerged in the spring of 2011.

    (The problem for McGinniss is that Levi Johnston told the folks on the View that he was at the hospital and visited Governor Palin shortly after she gave birth to Trig Palin. Oops!)

    Other allegations appear to have been published without any further verification.

    Bottom Line: McGinniss, while trying to weasel out of it, by acknowledging the validity of the email confirms his book is a literary hoax.

    As I said before, this whole episode reinforces the NYT book review by Janet Maslin, in which she wrote in part:

    Mr. McGinniss used his time in Alaska to chase caustic, unsubstantiated gossip about the Palins, often from unnamed sources like “one resident” and “a friend.”

    Given the foregoing, many people are taking it upon themselves to request that this book be characterized as fiction.

    instead of sending 40 lawyers to Palin’s hometown . the lamestream should have spent some time finding out what BHO had done from 1980 until 2000. Perhaps we would not have this inept and incompitent person in the white house.

    I cannot fathom the hate they have for her. She is nothing but a conservative woman who helps grassroots movements and trys to get people into the game and not just sit on the sidelines. So you disagree with her, fine. But attacking her as they do is ridiculous. She’s not even running for president (at least not yet anyways) and all they can do is try and trash her and her family. And some of the attacks on her come with the territory…but her kids?? Really? Thats how much of a douche you are?? I bet he wouldn’t be too happy if people were slandering his children to the media, if he has any.

    Plus they are probably just jealous that one of the most influential women in the political field today is a hot conservative and not a skeletor look-a-like (nanci pelosi) who can’t defend even her own beliefs.
