Okay, maybe nobody I know actually thought that the photo of Bill Clinton “mouth-kissing” a strange woman on the Drudge Report was any more convincing than your average supermarket tabloid fare. But given the fact that the highly scrupulous journalist who brought it to light now has a best-selling book on his hands, I can see nothing wrong with a little truth-squadding.
It seems that while the rest of us were carefully maintaining our distant superiority, Greg Sargent actually went and found the guy who took the picture. Apparently, Bill’s indiscretion was news to the photographer, too. Check New York magazine’s website shortly for further details…
