No sympathy

In a twist that will shock absolutely no one, Gerald Foos, the subject of Gay Talese's upcoming nonfiction book about a hotel owner who claims to have spent decades spying on his guests having sex, is possibly a liar, as well as a bonafide Grade-A creeper. Talese is re-evaluating the accuracy of his book after discovering that Foos didn't actually own the hotel for large chunk of the time he claimed to have spent spying on people.

I'd feel bad for Talese... except I don't. If I wanted to get a sick thrill out of other people's creepy weirdness, I'd watch Hoarders.
