    They've actually made very little money off of the book, from their own words.

    They're not going to say "Well we've barely made any money at all on it" and be lying, that'd just be dumb.

    Good for them. Sticking up for journalistic integrity is a plus in my book.

    hmmm how credible of a source you are i'm sure we all know that.

    I never saw the book become the top seller, plus who the hell would wana buy that piece of shit?

    Integrity in journalism means citing your source so we all know where you got the information from, not out of your ass.
