NEW YORK — A reported book deal for Mark Halperin, the “Game Change” co-author and political commentator who has faced multiple allegations of sexual harassment, is being greeted with widespread outrage.
Politico announced Sunday that Halperin’s “How To Beat Trump” was expected in November. The book draws upon conversations with dozens of Democratic strategists, including Donna Brazile, James Carville and David Axelrod. It’s the first major project for Halperin since reports of harassment emerged in 2017. Penguin Random House canceled a planned book by Halperin and John Heilemann. Halperin also was dropped as a commentator by Showtime and NBC News.
Sunday’s news was quickly condemned. Former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson, who alleged she was harassed by CEO Roger Ailes, called the deal a “slap in the face to all women.”
Whoever publishes Halperin can expect boycotts for decades.
Being against blacklisting is not the same as defending someone’s heinous actions. They are separate and distinct.
Haven't women accused every man now.
So, I won’t buy the book. He can still write it.
Guy is brilliant and if this book is anything like the other two presidential election ones he’s written , than I’m doubling down
Plz judge Halperin for what he really is - a right-wing Trump supporter. Known for faux democrat focus groups where he tries to embarrass them. Buy his book or not but don't be tricked into thinking he is anymore centrist/unbiased than Chuck Todd, Sean Hannity or Bill O'Reilly
No sympathy for sexual predators.
'widely concerned'-Twitter isn't irl
Let the man make a living.
Who is the publisher?
Where’s the outrage for the 75 Democrat strategists who helped him with it?...... giving the 🖕🏽 to metoo movement!
As it should
MeToo does not mean take a year off and write a book until it all blows over. Halperin is a sleaze and deserves no redemption.
Metoo MarkHalperin
If the publisher wants to throw money away, that’s their business.
Will he still sign the book though
