No, YOU IDIOT, it is because you LIED!
Fictional-memoir writer James Frey, of Oprah's Book Club Infamy, has finally placed the blame where it belongs for that whole brouhaha (at least in his mind):It’s the war in Iraq. “People feel frustrated by a lot of distortions by
politicians, by members of the media, by movie stars, by tabloid journalists, and it was like a sorta confluence of events that I happened to be in the middle of,” Frey told the London Guardian. “There are a lot of issues related to truth that are at the forefront of our culture right now because of what happened [in Iraq].”
But, I think he's being an idiot. People were outraged BECAUSE HE LIED. HE FABRICATED HIS SO-CALLED MEMOIR! Linking it to the Iraq War is so disgustingly disingenuous, it is unbearable.
The next thing you know, he'll be claiming that Bushitler McHalliburton & Co made him lie. For the oil, doncha know.
Asshole.
