    Kamala Harris’s forthcoming memoir is less a campaign diary than a political reckoning, laying bare her frustrations with top Democrats who hesitated to back her or fell short as potential running mates.

    In 107 Days, due out next week, the former vice president revisits the whiplash summer of 2024, when former President Joe Biden dropped his reelection bid and endorsed her as his successor. The book, however, catalogues the grudges, rivalries, and awkward phone calls that followed as she sought out a running

    Silly clickbait headline and lead by Mediaite via Yahoo there.

    But in the summary here only Shapiro and Newsom are scathed. Walz, Buttigieg, and Kelly come out as wonderful and supportive, and Whitmer and Pritzker as non-committal which was fair enough early in the process.

    It’s reported elsewhere that the book scathes much of Biden’s inner circle, but that’s not even addressed here.

    So what are you implying here—that the article is misleading, or just incomplete? It sounds like the headline/summary might give the impression of a bigger takedown, but in reality the focus is narrowed to Shapiro and Newsom, while others come across more positively or neutrally. If the book really does critique much of Biden’s inner circle, and that angle was left out, then yeah, the article could be seen as selective in what it chose to highlight.

    The headline and summary do not agree with the main body.
