The Kitty Kelley Book

MSNBC has ethicist Bruce Weinstein on telling us it's unethical to write, publish, or buy the book on the Bush family author Kitty Kelley has coming out through Doubleday today.

Will I buy it? Nah. I've never bought any books like it and I'm not likely to change that policy because I don't like the Bushes. The story about W. snorting coke and doing drugs during Poppy's inauguration, et al, have been around since before we knew who W. was. Frankly, I tend to believe them. This is a man who displays little self control.

But this ethicist seems to have an agenda, too. In fact, I'd question anyone who labels himself an ethicist.

Notably, Kelley has never been successfully sued by any of her topics such as Sinatra, Kennedy-Onassis or others.
