Kate Kelly, one of the authors of a hotly controversial new book about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, said that Democratic presidential candidates calling for his impeachment were engaged in a “rush to judgement” after their NYT op-ed.
The authors of a hotly controversial new book about Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that Democratic presidential candidates calling for his impeachment were engaged in a “rush to judgment” without having actually read their “nuanced” account of the sexual misconduct allegations that were leveled against him.
At the same time, Kelly and Pogrebin acknowledged there were “errors in the process” of preparing an opinion article in the Sunday paper about their book that resulted in Times editors removing “significant” information favorable to Kavanaugh’s defense from an early draft. But the Times article left out a key detail that is included in the book: that the woman at the party in the new allegation never spoke to the authors and, according to several of her friends, didn’t recall the event ever happening.
But the Times reporters were unable to flesh out any details about what Stier actually saw at the college dorm party more than 35 years ago, including whether he recalls anybody else who was there and how he communicated his recollections last year to Coons and others. Asked if Stier put his account of what he remembered in writing. Pogrebin replied: “I can’t say I know that.”
Against these details, the book also includes passages boosting Kavanaugh that also were left out of the Times article. The authors report that Leland Keyser, a one-time friend of Christine Blasey Ford, came to question Ford's account that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her at a high school house party. Keyser had been named by Ford as one of those present at the party when the assault occurred.
