Deeper into the morass: Mark Fuhrman on Terri Schiavo

Did you think Ed Klein’s book-length smear of Hillary Clinton represented a new low for the publishing industry? Think again.

Racist OJ cop Mark Fuhrman is about to release a new book on Terri Schiavo. Here’s what the Human Events promotional material says: “Fuhrman proves that the death of Terri Schiavo was a legal homicide perpetrated by the State of Florida at the behest of Michael Schiavo.”

In addition, Fuhrman’s book, like Klein’s, wasn’t published by Regnery or some other conservative press. It was published by William Morrow, a division of Harper Collins, and it’s ranked #38 on Amazon. Weep for our democracy.
