Finally, the truth has emerged: Frey Admits Lying; Oprah Apologizes to Viewers. Frey has apparently taken lessons at avoiding the question from some in our current administration. His stammering and stuttering defense of his fabricated tales of addiction and recovery are about as convincing as the tall tales of the sea.
What I find incredible about the entire article is this quote from Frey's publisher:
"But this question of fact checking is a complicated one. At The New Yorker and Time and Newsweek, you have experienced people who know where to go and what's right and what's wrong. We don't. There's been a traditional dependency on the author."
Is this possible? Why can't a huge publisher afford to fact-check the works they're foisting upon us?
