To discredit the Jerome Corsi book on Obama, AP writer Nedra Pickler sneers

Corsi writes for World Net Daily, a conservative Web site whose lead headline Thursday was "Astonishing photo claims: Dead Bigfoot stored on ice."

Funny, though, because the #5 story on the SF Chronicle site where I saw this is the Associated Press story with the headline "Georgia men claim hairy, frozen corpse is Bigfoot."

Though I agree that it's pretty damning to accuse a conservative website of having the same news judgment as the Associated Press.

Update: Peter Wehner. And Obama campaign caught lying about the book.

The 15-minute files

I'm on tour with ten speaking engagements in September and October in Louisiana, Michigan, Florida, and Chicago, and perhaps another one or two to be added.

Writings: Texas Review of Law & Politics (Tom Geoghegan's book); American Spectator (prosecutorial abuse); Liability Outlook (civil Gideon).

Quoted: LA Weekly (mold litigation); DC Examiner (trial lawyer lobbying); West Virginia Record (corrupt attorney general, with special guest star quotes from someone else you might know).

Litigating: GTA class action decertified, and the court adopts some of my arguments in dicta. I'm also quoted in a Fifth Circuit brief filed by the Texas Solicitor General in In re: Lease Oil Antitrust Litigation, No. 08-40125.
