in that case. i agree to it and the writers credibility. though he is connected to the paper. in all honesty, to me it just feels like the paper is getting as much buck for the bang as it can squeeze out.

so a cultural editor in it's employ writing a book about (probably ) the only thing which put it in the limelight probably has no ulterior motive then, like boosting sales

Well, writers write, and they write about what they know, so I don't particularly smell conspiracy here. I don't know how what's in his employment contract but you had a busiess, right? Presumably you had some employees? If one of them had written a book about something they had experienced while working for you I doubt you would have seen any of the money. So I don't think he'd be doing this for the paper's benefit.

true, it's probably just the cynic in me. though i'm not into conspiracy theories i do struggle to trust the motives of others
