the interview is right on target.
I had no idea Katie had such an interesting life. The helicopter, her father's sex change and abandonment,, early days covering damn near everything in NYC, backstage rumors and gossip, Keith.. . She pretty well covered everything without the rancor you would expect. Explained a lot. Gained new respect for her.
I may check out her new book.

(32,579 posts)It's mostly a memoir but she also covers the background and politics of Chump's 2016 campaign which was interesting and entertaining. Now that I've learned her life story (from the book) I like her a lot more.

(43,049 posts)Apparently, Terri interviewed her when the book came out. I haven't had time to look that one up. (I rarely have time to look up anything Trump.)

But he did.
