Sharyl, why do you throw away your beauty and intelligence by wading into conspiracy-theory politics and side with Trump worshipers? You're too smart to believe your own diatribes...please step into the light, just for a minute.

That's actually a sweet insult! :) To my knowledge I've never written about unfounded "conspiracy theories" but I've written quite a bit about the origin/use of the phrase to controversialize topics & people. See "The Smear." (Hint: The CIA started it.)https://www.amazon.com/Smear-Shady-Political-Operatives-Control/dp/0062468162 …

Will read your book..follow you on CSPAN. I understand your concerns about lying, corruption, etc., no matter who or what the source. As a philosopher, I appreciate your concern to critique all sides. I don't mean to insult, just to alert you not to fall down a Corsi rabbit hole.

It's ok. I do what I do without regard to what others think about the result... and am doing what I like to do and what I hope is of some value to some people!

But you SHOULD care: you are a public figure & have considerable power in informing and shaping opinion. You are articulate, even eloquent. The misinformed & benighted need you. This is not a team sport, it's reality. Will hold my fire until I read your new book, however.

Thank you. And I think if I were to get wrapped up in trying to shape opinion I might be tempted to skew my stories to convince people. To me that's a bad road to go down...but I do see where you are coming from. Thank you Melinda.
