Oprah's latest book club selection seems to not deserve its non-fiction billing.

I wonder how Oprah will react to this information, not because i give a crap about Oprah, but because i wonder if she thinks it matters enough to make a fuss about it.

Indeed. Anybody who pawns such a set of lies for millions deserves a very unkind fate.

Fiction is a set of lies. Are all fiction writers fuckheads? Or just the ones who make millions?

Celebrities aren't really the way they appear in interviews, movies, and magazines. Fuckheads, one and all?

I think he meant peddling lies as truth. For millions or for chump change, it still deserves punishment.

Yes, celebrities are fuckheads if they cultivate public personae that are far removed from who they really are. Just like anyone else.
