Eleanor Clift and Rachel Rosen.JPG

That was Eleanor Clift discussing her new book, "Two Weeks of Life," with CNN's Rachel Rosen yesterday at a book salon held by PR firm Dezenhall Resources.

Clift's book is a personal narrative examining the death of her husband Tom Brazaitis and Terry Schiavo, who died within days of Clift's husband and became a national news story because of Congress' involvement. Brazaitis was a Washington columnist for the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Why Do Leakers Leak?

From the release:

    America has spoken and Barack Obama will be the next President of the United States, but what was on the minds of the American people during this historic election?

    America Speaks: The Historic 2008 Election by ABC News and USA TODAY (Foreword by Charles Gibson and preface by Ken Paulson, editor of USA TODAY) is a comprehensive, up-to-the-minute wrap-up of the 2008 presidential election packed with compelling color photographs, insightful journalism from two of the world’s news giants, and essays by ABC's highest profiled news anchors and correspondents including Robin Roberts, David Muir, Kate Snow, and Jake Tapper who each reflect on their campaign experiences.

    Readers will also travel through "50 States in 50 Days" in the accompanying DVD in which ABC News and USA TODAY toured the nation and captured the voices of the voters as they weighed in on the merits of the candidates and the challenges being faced by our country.

    The 2008 Presidential election may be over, but the American people will not soon forget the impact this race had on our nation. America Speaks commemorates this unprecedented journey that will always be remembered as an important part of American history.
