XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX TUESDAY JUNE 06 2000 10:40:47 ET XXXXX LAWSUIT THREATENED AGAINST DRUDGE OVER CONTROVERSIAL DISNEY, TINA BROWN PROJECT; BOOK DIGS DIRT ON CLINTON FOES, AUTHOR PROBED STARR'S SEX LIFE **Exclusive Update** "Mr. Drudge, you will be sued," warned famed powerlawyer Floyd Abrams late Monday from Israel. Abrams, calling on behalf of DISNEY's TALK/MIRAMAX, warned of immediate legal action against this report if new details are released and circulated about a controversial project currently in the oven at Tina Brown's new book imprint. The DRUDGE REPORT obtained a working manuscript of a book commissioned by TALK -- a book that digs deep into the private sex lives and business dealings of major and minor Clinton critics! Author John Connolly's investigation has became the focus of intense scrutiny on Publisher's Row. Connolly has not only hired private investigators, he's also consulted with White House aides, the DRUDGE PORT can reveal. "Very little has been written on the personal lives of the people who were behind the Lewinsky case," writes author John Connolly, in a working introduction to THE INSANE CLOWN POSSE. Connolly, spending the cash advanced to him by TALK, investigates extramarital affairs of lawyers with ties to the Lewinsky impeachment drama and the sexual orientation of staffers working in the Office of the Independent Counsel ["Ken's Men"]. In a shocking twist, Connolly even probed the sex life of former Independent Counsel Ken Starr! In his work-in-progress, Connolly claims that Starr was blackmailed by political operatives. Connolly writes: "Our source said that after an investigation of Starr... someone confronted Starr with what they had learned and suggested that he look for other employment." Connolly has been quizzing associates about Starr, whether he's had an affair or an infatuation with Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. A source close to Starr told the DRUDGE REPORT that the story is "absurd and false." Connolly questions why it is that "three young male protege’s of Starr’s had worked for Conservative Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy." "This is a disgrace!" said a lawyer who has received Connolly's undivided attention. "And the fact that a DISNEY company, with Tina Brown, has commissioned this witch hunt is unconscionable." TALK/MIRAMAX book editor John Burnham confirmed that Connolly is under contract to write CLOWN POSSE, but cautioned that "no decisions have been made" about the book's eventual content. Powerlawyer Floyd Abrams, known for his near-religious defense of the First Amendment, unless you happen to be an Internet reporter, warned late Monday that TALK/MIRAMAX would take all appropriate legal action to "protect its reputation" regarding the project INSANE CLOWN POSSE. Abrams, who has represented CBS and the NEW YORK TIMES in high-profile litigations, has been critical of this report in the past. In a Page One Wall Street Journal profile, Abrams declared that "Drudge isn't a real journalist." "There is such a level of built-in irresponsibility in everything he does," Abrams told the paper. "If one were rewriting libel law today, one would try to write it to assure that the false statements of Matt Drudge were treated as libel." Let's meet in the judge's chambers, Mr. Abrams. Preferably, Justice Kennedy's. ----------------------------------------------------------- Filed by Matt Drudge Reports are moved when circumstances warrant http://www.drudgereport.com for updates (c)DRUDGE REPORT 2000 ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *Mike Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~~~~~~~~ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
