While I don't begrudge her the money, the choice of a questionable
ghost writer, released from the NYT for by-lining a story written
by a free-lancer means the whole project will be discredited.

Sounds like jealous sour grapes to us, old boy!


Not to me.
Tom Schoene

In addition to a Pulitzer Prize, Rick Bragg, the ghost writer-
has twice won the prestigious American Society of Newspaper Editors
Distinguished Writing Award, and more than 50 writing awards in his

20-year
career. In 1992, he was awarded a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard University.
He has taught writing in colleges and in newspaper news rooms.

Sour grapes mode still on! :-)


Ed's right. Further, I don't think Jessica's in a position to make an
informed judgment regarding the ghost writer. Especially one who appears to
have purloined somebody else's work. Makes you wonder about the awards, as
well, doesn't it?
