Overview
A behind-the-scenes look at the Jon and Kate Gosselin media circus, as told by a former Us Weekly reporter.
Description
The crazy world of Jon and Kate Gosselin like you've never seen it before! Veteran journalist Al Walentis reported on the story for Us Weekly during the summer of 2009 and he delivers a pull-no-punches account of the madness of tabloid journalism, taking you behind the scenes to show what it was really like at ground zero when international paparazzi swarmed into the peaceful Pennsylvania community of Wernersville to cover the unlikeliest celebrity story in history. The author tells how he shopped and sold the exclusive photos of Jon cheating with the babysitter to a national publication, probes the origins of Jon's evolution from milquetoast second-banana to globetrotting playboy, tracks Kate's mercenary cunning since the days before the sextuplets were even born, and chronicles Jon's epic fall from public grace, which would be Shakespearean in dimension...if God only had a sense of humor. Here, for the first time, is the untold story of the people who got rich off Jon and Kate's pub
