I'll watch the episode for I'll be gone, but I'm in agreement that the book was not entirely successful.

My local library system has several Fairstein books available through the OverDrive digital app, which I would like to get removed, but I’ve worked for that system and no one who would be involved in that decision is paid anywhere near enough to deal with that drama.

Free speech, yes. Talk all you want, for free. There is no guarantee that you will be paid for the trash that you’re talking. (Looking at you, Kellyanne Conway.) Now, if the publishers were paying the advances directly to victims, like the Goldmans and OJs children, or to funds to safeguard voting rights and build low income housing and assist asylum seekers instead of paying the questionable authors... then I would support still publishing their books. Except not really, because we do NOT need their ideas getting more exposure!
