Yesterday, we told you how NBC was working hard on nailing down a book deal for Casey Anthony, in an exchange for an unpaid interview on their network. Well, several publishers are speaking out about the idea — and they don’t want any part of it.
I can’t say that I blame them, she’s become infamous and no one wants to touch her with a ten foot pole. TMZ talked to several publishers who said NO FREAKIN’ WAY:
Simon and Schuster: “We are 100% not interested. We are NOT NOT NOT interested. Simon & Schuster is not publishing, and has never intended to publish, any book by Casey Anthony, her family, or any member of her team.
Harper Collins: “We are planning on publishing the Prosecutor’s book who was involved in the Casey Anthony case, so we have no plans in releasing a Casey Anthony book. We’re sticking with the prosecutor.”
Penguin Group: “We have no plans on doing a book deal with Casey Anthony.”
Another publisher went so far as to say, “Hell no … it’s blood money.”
Good!
