Title: 'Hit Job' that gets easily verified facts wrong
Product review: This book is, needless to say, a reaction against (and a pale shadow of) Goldberg's wildly successful "100 People Who Are Screwing Up America (And Al Franken Is #37)"Apparently Huberman felt Goldberg's book was too hard on various left leaning prominent figures, so he decided to write this screed to provide some balance. Sadly, all it really does is provide a list of people who really, really get under Huberman's skin.The book is full of shoddy research, poor citation, and outright lies and fabrications.Perhaps the most glaring example is the section on Rush Limbaugh, where two incredibly racially incendiary quotes are listed. The only problem is that Rush Limbaugh NEVER SAID either quote, or anything remotely similar. They are pure fabrications.This book is not witty or droll - John Stewart and Stephen Colbert are witty and droll. It's simply Huberman engaging in fantasies about the people he really personally dislikes.
