BTW, the reason this was edited out of Reclaiming Parkland was because my publisher was afraid Vince would sue.
I told them, you cannot sue for libel if something is true. Plus, if the guy is a celebrity, there is a three tier test one has to pass, which includes the author has to know something is false and therefore practice malice in writing it. Look at all those footnotes, how could he say I knew something was false. I mean I did my homework.
I think it hurt the sales of the book because this was one of the highlights of the volume, plus it was the first chapter. It would have created buzz.
