Frey-cuss

Obviously, I don't know all the legal details and wrangling involved in the James Frey mess, but I think if I were the publisher of this book, I'd stop shipping the thing and donate whatever copies I still had to libraries so people who are curious could read it for free. Then I think I'd put the text up free on the web for anyone to download. That way, I don't look like a greed driven, uncaring, corporate machine and Frey doesn't get to profit from lying. Nobody gets another cent from the thing. Most people will do the right thing for their society, while most companies will do the right thing for their bottom line. Greed sucks, Ted.
