Dear Ms. Winfrey:
Serious allegations have been made that you were conned into publicizing a book, “A Million Little Pieces,” that contains numerous fabrications. If the charges are true, it would not be the first time that the media have fallen for a hoax. We suggest you use this opportunity to examine how the media in general need to raise their standards to guard against publicizing false claims and inaccurate information. Those in the media who are attacking you for publicizing the James Frey book may have skeletons in their own closets. Accuracy in Media in Washington, D.C. stands ready to assist you in doing a show about media misdeeds and scandals.
