How Has Big Publishing Changed American Fiction?
In 1989, Gerald Howard had been a book editor for about ten years, and his future filled him with dread.

A judge also dismissed the Duke of Sussex’s claim that there was a “secret agreement” between Buckingham Palace and the press, calling the alleged arrangement implausible, according to the Daily Mail.
