The author of the explosive new Trump book says he can't be sure if parts of it are true
Business Insider ^ | 1/5/2018 | Kieran Corcoran

I see a Defamation lawsuit in Mr. Wolff's future....soon! The author of the explosive new book about Donald Trump's presidency acknowledged in an author's note that he wasn't certain all of its content was true.

Michael Wolff, the author of "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," included a note at the start that casts significant doubt on the reliability of the specifics contained in the rest of its pages.

Several of his sources, he says, were definitely lying to him, while some offered accounts that flatly contradicted those of others.

Comparing quality:
If the “tell all” book of the Clinton white house is a Mercedes, the “tell all” book of the Trump white house is a Yugo.

Fine. The defamation of character suit will be filed shortly. Hope the book sells lots to cover the damage claims.

It was already well known from Wolff’s past writings that his method is to collect a bunch of gossip, mainly from minor and/or irrelevant actors, and then to spin whatever yarns he finds most pleasing. He makes up scenes and quotes according to his own imagination. It is impossible to know what details, if any, have any connection to reality. It is a novel.

“Can’t be sure if parts are true.....”

......because he accepted every fiction as fact and has confused his brilliant self, thereby giving all those other brillliant progressive geniuses enough fiction by which they can engage in onanism.

IMHO

Can’t remember.....

If one publishes a negative opinion (versus simply stating out loud), is it slander or libel? Hope woofies law(lie)er knows....

Bannon did not write the book.
He foolishly talked to the liar who did.

“The author of the explosive new Trump book says he can’t be sure if parts of it are true”

Translation:

This book is complete pile of crap.

One would think his publisher might want to be aware of this.
