I agree with you there... I don't think so either.

First perceptions of this can be misleading.

When I heard the word 'tapes' used, I thought Jameson had 'worn a wire' during her lunches with the Ramseys. That is far, far from the truth of what happened.

I'm sure there was no intent to 'stab someone in the back'.
There may well have been a desire and intent to write a book, an inability to do so (not all of us are authors or can devote the time and effort that is required) and a lack of knowledge of the publishing world. Economic circumstances may have clouded judgement too, but who amongst us has not heard the expression about a "bird in the hand"? And who amongst us has not followed that expression many, many times.

I have wished many times that Jameson would write a book, but I do realize it is a difficult task. I think such a book would have sold well and brought in far more in royalties than the sum in question. However, the shelves of bookstores often sag with unsold volumes that publishers thought would sell like hotcakes.
