Clinton Cash Author Makes ‘7 Or 8’ Corrections

Inaccurate passages are corrected in updated Kindle versions of Clinton Cash.
Among them, Schweizer notes in the original version of the book that TD Bank, a major shareholder in the Keystone XL Pipeline, paid Bill Clinton for speeches and then said it would “begin selling its $1.6 billion worth of shares in the massive but potentially still-born [sic] Keystone XL crude pipeline project” after Hillary Clinton left office. But as his source on the sale of TD Bank’s shares, Schweizer used a press release that was revealed to be fake in 2013.
That passage has been removed from the most recent Kindle version of the book.
Schweizer also appears to have edited a passage in which he claims Bill Clinton was paid $200,000 per speech by Irish billionaire Denis O’Brien for three speaking engagements he delivered in Ireland. The implication was that, while Hillary Clinton’s State Department was giving O’Brien’s company taxpayer money through the Haiti Mobile Money Initiative, “O’Brien was in turn making money for the Clintons.”
But Clinton was not paid personally for those speeches, according to his spokesman. And the Clinton Foundation was paid for just one of the three speeches. The new version deletes any mention that Clinton was paid for those speeches, as well as a claim that Clinton received $225,000 for a speech in Jamaica sponsored in part by O’Brien’s company Digicel. Another edit appears to have been made on the timing of a speech Clinton gave in Jamaica, which was also paid for by O’Brien.

Standard conservative/Republican fare… tell wild stories, let the sheeple believe them, then make less publicized corrections.
You get the extremists on your side, believing every word… while still showing that you were oh-so-good by correcting what was “a mistake”.

When can we expect the retractions and public apologies?

Oops! sez the fake author.

This has hurt Hillary, but did not strike a fatal blow.
Hillary still has an excellent chance of being elected.
This guy should be ashamed of himself, putting this attack piece on Hillary,
without getting his facts straight.

It’s interesting that there is so much undisclosed information and money connected to the Clintons…..
And this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Hmmm…… now how to keep problematic issues from being revealed?
Keep everything on your own email server and just delete what you want to keep hidden…..

Rupert Murdoch and NewsMax gave money to the Clinton’s charity too.
So what?
Everybody knows the Media is a liberal as the big corporations who own them…
Their job is to deliver readers and viewers to advertisers….period.
This is why David Frum said, “Republicans have been Fleeced, Exploited And Lied To’ by a Conservative Entertainment Complex”

If there was any questionable activities, there are certainly easier ways of doing it.

Only 7 or 8??

I have a simpler solution — move the book into the fiction section of the book store.
