Huma Abedin wants $2M for a tell-all memoir
2017-04-16
I understand Anthony Weiner is gonna do a book too. A pop-up picture book
The estranged wife of disgraced ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner and former top aide to Hillary Clinton has been meeting over the past few weeks with top literary agents to discuss her writing a book, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Abedin, 40, is seeking as much as $2 million for the book, which would likely detail her husband's sexting scandal and her role in Clinton's failed presidential bid, according to the report.

#9  $2M is a lot for a work of fiction.

#6  If I read this right, she wants 2 mill advance so it's really about opening the bidding with bookstores and Hildabeest . Since she seems to have been left behind, it's about buying her off or else. Dangerous game to play with the Clintons. There is a long list of names she might be joining if she isnt careful.

#5  Bet she runs all of the dirty details passed the Clintons to get permission on what she can/cannot say.

#3  I'd rather hear her testify in court under oath than read her memoirs.

#2  Agreed TW.

Her leverage is all in how much she can spill the beans about the Clintons, all of them.

A sweet little reminiscence about the girls trying their best till big bad Comey and the Russians stole their toys, just ain't gonna cut it.

#1  That high-paid job she expected at the White House fell through, and dear, wayward Anthony isn't contributing anything to the bank account -- a fierce woman has to take care of business.

But that book isn't going to sell enough to make back the advance unless she dishes some serious dirt. Do the Clintons still have any power?
