How Michael Wolff Wrote His Bombshell White House Tell-All
The White House is demanding Michael Wolff not publish his upcoming tell-all "Fire and Fury." Axios' Alayna Treene joins Cheddar to break down the story that's turning the political and media worlds on their heads. She reveals whether she thinks the cease-and-desist letter counts as an admission that the contents of the book are true.
Next, we dive into the controversial media critic's background and history with the president. Despite critics complaints that Wolff's accounts are inaccurate, Axios reports he has dozens of hours of recordings to support claims made in his book. Despite shooting to number one on Amazon's top-sellers list, Treene discusses whether she thinks the White House's legal efforts will be successful in blocking the book's release.
