Quote:

Anonymous: From the New York Times review of your book: "(Bernstein) argues that the couple were 'treated more harshly, and often pursued with different standards and more relentlessly -- during virtually the whole of their occupancy of the White House -- than any president and his wife of the 20th century.' He contends that many of the 'underlying assumptions' of the assertions that fueled the investigation into their lives 'were often contextually misleading, exaggerated in significance, and sometimes factually off-base.' "

Are these quotes accurate? If so, who was doing the pursuing, misleading, exaggerating and "off-basing"? If true, this topic might make an excellent book. Have you considered this?

it was accorded, especially in the coverage of the Times, The Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal.
