NYTimes: Live on 'Oprah,' a Memoirist Is Kicked Out of the Book Club

Live on 'Oprah,' a Memoirist Is Kicked Out of the Book Club: "She then confronted Mr. Frey about his fabrications, leading him to admit that in addition to exaggerating the amount of time he had spent in jail, he had lied about how his girlfriend had died; about the details of a foray outside a rehabilitation center; and about his claim that he had received a root canal without anesthesia because the center prohibited the use of Novocaine."

Thank you, Oprah and The Smoking Gun. James Frey, keep writing, by all means, just don't publish any more fiction as non-fiction. Seriously, I'm impressed that Oprah turned around and did the right thing after her somewhat flippant phone call during Frey's interview on Larry King a couple weeks ago.
