deliberate attempt at restraint of trade
If Farah's attorneys can prove this in court, I would guess that Esquire might have to pay out a lot of money, especially if Farah can prove that he lost revenue. Any FReeper attorney types know anything about how this works?

Here is the start of the article.
In a stunning development one day after the release of Where's the Birth Certificate? The Case that Barack Obama is not Eligible to be President, by Dr. Jerome Corsi, World Net Daily Editor and Chief Executive Officer Joseph Farah has announced plans to recall and pulp the entire 200,000 first printing run of the book, as well as announcing an offer to refund the purchase price to anyone who has already bought either a hard copy or electronic download of the book.
In an exclusive interview, a reflective Farah, who wrote the book's foreword and also published Corsi's earlier best-selling work, Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak out Against John Kerry and Capricorn One: NASA, JFK, and the Great "Moon Landing" Cover-Up, said that after much serious reflection, he could not go forward with the project. "I believe with all my heart that Barack Obama is destroying this country, and I will continue to stand against his administration at every turn, but in light of recent events, this book has become problematic, and contains what I now believe to be factual inaccuracies," he said this morning. "I cannot in good conscience publish it and expect anyone to believe it."
When asked if he had any plans to publish a corrected version of the book, he said cryptically, "There is no book." Farah declined to comment on his discussions of the matter with Corsi.
Is there anyone reading that who can't work out that it is not serious?

WND should run a “parody” about how Mike Warren likes to have sex with little boys. When asked, just say we were joking.

Appears Corsi’s book has hit on some truths and the Alinsky supporters are firing back.
If the book was without any merit, the Alinskyites would just let it die a quiet death.

Read Farah’s series of articles last week exposing the “b/c” as a fraud, and THEN explain to us why you still think that HE is the hoaxter, not Obama. Sorry, TCM, but if you knew the reasons for skepticism, you’d realize that you are clueless on this one. Bob

Check out this link and try thinking for yourself instead of running with the herd.

It was a joke and the editor explains it afterward.
Esquire is one of my favorite magazines and after I thought about his post it just an inside joke.

^5's AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Corsi's book is almost doomed by the timing of the Marxist's release of his BC, anyway and I think that's the real reason he released it.
Too much information in Corsi's book that otherwise would have been talked about. Now the issue is dead [again] until facts in Corsi's book gain traction.

An ‘inside joke’ for the benefit of the office crew doesn’t get printed publicly in a supposedly credible publication.
.. and THEN when the flak starts, the article is conveniently described as ‘satire.’
He’s obviously lib .. his intention is clear. Then add his vulgar statement about Corsi = BINGO.

I accept his explanation and he did put some clues in the article for those that caught it.
I didn’t but went back and read and got it.

My definition of conservatism doesn't include believing every idiotic conspiracy that comes along. I value conservatism over birtherism.
The conservatives I know don't believe a word out of the liar-in-chief's mouth. His presented history is chronicled entirely in unverified autobiography. This sole documentation of his associations, actions, and whereabouts demands thorough and determined investigation. Without validation, obama's life story remains a simple political publication, with as much biographical value as Alice in Wonderland. Farah/Corsi are intelligent enough to understand this.

(There is no truth in him.)
To: onyx
I guess we shall see. The fact that his hand was very likely
forced prematurely by both Trump and Corsi .. now that’s really something. Shows the twitching pressure they must be feeling. Otherwise, his malignant arrogance would’ve prevented him from releasing one iota of anything to respond to the questions of those he considers so beneath his pompous a$$ self.
And there’s yet to be an official/legal forensic authentication of any of his bc’s.
