Here’s the Tillman cartoon again. I’ve been thinking about Krakauer’s sliming. Know what’s funny?
He wouldn’t even have book to write if it weren’t for me. My cartoon was the first shot across the bow that this story stank, although no one knew exactly how much. It prompted a national debate about Tillman and his motivations that ultimately got some of his comrades to confess that the Army had covered up the circumstances of his death.
Krakauer can keep his apology. But my agent wants our 15% royalties.
