Inside Hillary Clintons Secret Takeover of the DNC (By DONNA BRAZILE November 02, 2017)

336. I don't know for sure that the Sun will rise tomorrow.

My standard is not "If it might make the DNC and/or the Hillary Clinton campaign look bad then it must be false."

My standard is, instead, to consider the kind of evidence that reasonable people are accustomed to relying on in the normal course of affairs.

On that basis, it's extremely unlikely that Donna Brazile would fabricate this story. If Robby Mook and the DNC officer who signed the (purported) agreement and other knowledgeable people come forward and all say that she did fabricate it, I'll be willing to reconsider.

Your analogy to Clinton's book is misplaced. The "pre-release reviews" that you dismiss were, AFAIK, completely accurate about what was in the book. Yes, there was other stuff in the book as well, and obviously the same will be true of Brazile's book, but that doesn't mean that the part you find discomfiting is not in the book.
