The fact that those lines are in the media is not a proof they are in Frank's book, sadly. I've read enough book reviews, and even some reports of the trial were absolute BS. Same goes for the MFT concert. Even some of the reports about the doc on CM are not accurate.
I agree that people might not read the book, but will certainly read those book reviews, and remember them. But to be perfectly honest, you have to remember everything and anything Michael related is negatively reported. But then blame the media, not those who wrote the book. The media are those who twist things. They are those who turned the man who opened his house for children in need into some kind of monster. They twisted what Michael said himself. But it doesnt mean people should stop writing or talking about Michael. No one can damage Michael's image in the media more than what it is anyway.
I understand the anger around the quotes, but I still agree with Ivy. We, of all people, should know better than to judge someone based on what the media report. We've witnessed how much damage they can do, and how they dont hesitate to spread lies. You can dislike the Cascios. You can think a friend should never tell anything private about another friend. We all have our values, and sensibilities. No one has to agree on this.
But before you judge something (because it should not be about who wrote it, what what is written), then know what it is for yourself, and for real. If you still hate it, then say so, but at least your opinion will be based on reality, not on some guy in search of tawdry headlines. Just be fair.
And in this case, you even have the chance to talk to the author himself, so instead of being angry at the team, take advantage of this opportunity, and go ahead. Ask those questions, the why, how, where. Then if you still think Frank is a fake backstabber, fine, but at least it wont be because of a middle man we all know we cant trust.
