Opis

What is Truth And Liability about? Truth And Liability is about the early-to-mid-life struggles of a beautiful woman who marries an American sports icon, while dealing with her own internal conflicts, and an increasingly rabid paparazzi, while living in the world of the get-everything-for-nothing American legal system that was in the late 20th Century. At least that is what Truth And Liability is on the surface. But what is Truth And Liability really about? If you ask readers what other books are about, such as: The Old Man And The Sea, To Kill A Mockingbird, or The Catcher In The Rye; you will get easy answers such as: An old Cuban fisherman; A pre-pubescent tomboy in a Depression-era small town in the South; and a misfit college boy trying to fit into what was 1950's America; respectively. But that would only be what those stories are on the surface. Those stories are about more than the simple words written in each sentence of their text. Not to attempt to compare anything written in Truth And Liability in any way to those great works, these titles are given merely as well known examples; However, contained within the words of Truth And Liability is the media firestorm that ripped the blindfold off the eyes of Lady Liberty, offset the scales of Justice, and eradicated the law of innocence until proven guilty. Within Truth And Liability are the unrealized loss of freedom in America and the loss of everything that heretofore Americans had held in high regard; as these things were sacrificed on the altar of sensationalistic journalism right before the public eye. Of course these things have been happening slowly over a period of many years, but the historical event captured in Truth And Liability may be the defining moment when the sacred duty of a free press to report facts clashed with the sacred right of the freedom of speech. That moment when the story that sold copy became more important than the truth. Truth And Liability raises the question we should all be asking. With a press that cares not for the truth, can we ever return to the days when America had a superman fighting for truth, justice and the American way of life? Perhaps more potently; Can Americans ever return to being the people the entire world depended on and looked up to?
