Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) that "is the first and last word in what the Clintons want America to forget," according to the film's website.

In fact, a Media Matters review counted 101 distinct named interviewees in the book's endnotes. Of the 873 citations to interviews, 309 were to interviews of named sources, while 564 were to interviews of anonymous sources. http://mediamatters.org/items/200706160003 Fri, 15 Jun 2007 23:55:32 EST Gerth grasps for evidence to support book's claim of longtime plan for Hillary Clinton presidency http://mediamatters.org/items/200706110008 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706110008 Mon, 11 Jun 2007 19:35:59 EST On Meet the Press, Gerth and Van Natta cling to falsehood about Clinton's criticism of Bush on war http://mediamatters.org/items/200706100003 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706100003 Sun, 10 Jun 2007 15:02:53 EST NewsMax is offering Her Way free with a one-year subscription http://mediamatters.org/items/200706070010 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706070010 Thu, 7 Jun 2007 18:18:31 EST Gerth blames NY Times editors for Whitewater "mistakes" http://mediamatters.org/items/200706050004 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706050004 Tue, 5 Jun 2007 13:46:34 EST On GMA, Gerth and Van Natta dodged discussion of claim that alleged "pact" included two terms as president for Hillary Clinton http://mediamatters.org/items/200706040011 In an advance copy of Her Way, Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. claim that Bill Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton made a "secret pact" early in their careers to "capture the presidency for Bill," which the Clintons later expanded to include two terms as president for her. In an appearance on Good Morning America, Gerth and Van Natta dodged questions about the latter claim. http://mediamatters.org/items/200706040011 Mon, 4 Jun 2007 19:43:43 EST NY Times refuses to run correction for false claim in Her Way excerpt http://mediamatters.org/items/200706010005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706010005 Fri, 1 Jun 2007 15:26:17 EST Is the Clintons' purported "secret pact of ambition" a Gerth-Van Natta creation? http://mediamatters.org/items/200706010004 http://mediamatters.org/items/200706010004 Fri, 1 Jun 2007 15:03:25 EST Federal judge blasted Her Way co-author Van Natta for "fraudulent attribution" in 1999 Times article http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310009 In Her Way, Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. repeatedly cite former officials in the Office of Independent Counsel (OIC) to rehash allegations against Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. This recalls Gerth's and Van Natta's controversial reporting on the OIC at The New York Times. In fact, a federal judge criticized Van Natta for "journalistic sleight of hand" and "fraudulent attribution" of key information in a 1999 article. In that article, Van Natta also allowed an OIC spokesman to falsely deny that he had been a source on internal OIC discussions. http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310009 Thu, 31 May 2007 19:46:52 EST Gerth and Van Natta falsely claim Clinton did not speak about terror before 9-11 http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310005 Thu, 31 May 2007 13:34:22 EST Starr's Way: Gerth, Van Natta cite Starr, OIC "sources" at least 33 times in new book http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310002 A Media Matters review of Her Way by Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. identified at least 33 citations of conversations with officials in the former Office of Independent Counsel (OIC) that investigated Whitewater, at least seven of which refer to an interview with former independent counsel Kenneth Starr. Some of these notes refer to interviews with OIC officials in 1997 and 1998, recalling serious legal questions raised by alleged leaks from the OIC's office in the late 1990's. Given that three prosecutors decided against filing charges against Hillary Clinton, the high number of citations by Gerth and Van Natta of former OIC officials gives rise to questions about the authors' overreliance on sources who concluded they were unable to prove their allegations in a court of law. http://mediamatters.org/items/200705310002 Thu, 31 May 2007 11:20:13 EST Gerth and Van Natta misrepresented Clinton's account of Foster's last month http://mediamatters.org/items/200705300007 http://mediamatters.org/items/200705300007 Wed, 30 May 2007 19:35:14 EST Web version of NY Times Gerth article left uncorrected 13 years after publication http://mediamatters.org/items/200705300006 Thirteen years after the publication of a New York Times article that made a false claim regarding President Bill Clinton's tenure as Arkansas governor, the online and Nexis versions of that article still do not include the correction. http://mediamatters.org/items/200705300006 Wed, 30 May 2007 18:00:27 EST
