Jeffrey Toobin's new book, A Vast Conspiracy, is fatally flawed. First, the author fails to reveal that he works for The New Yorker, the magazine which itself is part of the Clinton scandals - having participated in the illegal release of Privacy Act protected information from Linda Tripp's Pentagon file. In addition, The New Yorker has been sued by Judicial Watch client, Dolly Kyle Browning, for allegedly participating in a scheme to smear her [book] as well. Documents recently released in Judicial Watch's other lawsuits show that Sidney Blumenthal, Clinton White House "smearmeister," and The New Yorker communicated frequently during the Clinton scandals. Accordingly, Toobin has failed to reveal his significant conflict of interest. This conflict of interest manifests itself as early as page 7 of his book, wherein he states: The Clinton years abounded in purported scandals that offered much in the way of colorful names - Whitewater, Filegate, Travelgate, to name only the best known - but little in the way of actual criminal offenses. The futility of the endless searches for criminals in the White House only spurred the zeal of the pursuers. Once again, the prosecutors were political heroes - this time for the other side. "Toobin's so-called analysis shows not only his ideological bias but also his naivete, since selling high technology to the Chinese in exchange for campaign contributions, and the wholesale violation of privacy rights - of which his magazine is a part - is hardly something to blithely dismiss," stated Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman. ### ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Judicial Watch, Inc. 501 School Street, S.W.; Suite 725; Washington, D.C. 20024 Tel: (888) JW-ETHIC; Fax: (202) 646-5199 http://www.JudicialWatch.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------ © 1999, Judicial Watch, Inc. ® All rights reserved. ================================================================= 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.
