From Media Matters regarding the flap about the Boston Globe reporter who broke the story about George Elliot recanting his affadavit for the Swifty Boys, who was alledged to have been paid to write the introduction to a Kerry book:
The Globe set the record straight in an August 7 article by Globe staff reporter Susan Milligan: "Kranish had no connection to the Kerry campaign book and did not write its introduction." Milligan noted that "Amazon, the online bookseller, apparently contributed to the confusion with a listing for the Kerry-approved campaign book indicating Kranish as the author. PublicAffairs' [the book's publisher] officials said yesterday that Amazon had agreed to revise the listing immediately." Amazon.com has corrected the book's listing, now indicating Senators John Kerry and John Edwards as the sole authors.
