A page from a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama’s then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel discovered by Breitbart.com re-surfaced in 2012 stating that he was “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.”
Snopes explained away the discovery as a “mistake” claimed by the author of the pamphlet. However that doesn’t change the words printed in it. Even if the woman who authored it apologized for making a editorial mistake. The question still stands, where then did she get the idea to even write that he was “born in Kenya?” And further, how could a “Literary Agency” in charge of publishing and promoting books, make such a drastic “mistake?” Wouldn’t they have fact-checked their own work before publishing a promotional pamphlet?
