Farrow, who won a Pulitzer Prize for hisexposé of Weinstein, said he was sorry the book was unavailable and criticised the companies that had stopped selling it.
Farrow's book refers to Howard in at least 20 separate passages. He wrote that Howard met repeatedly with Weinstein and told the entertainment heavyweight, via an email Farrow obtained, that he had unflattering information to share about an actress who had accused Weinstein of rape. Howard has denied passing along an audio recording that one of his reporters obtained about the actress.
Dylan Howard, a former Channel Seven reporter pictured here in 2014, made a career for himself in the US tabloid industry.Farrow also recounted how, after he began reporting on AMI, the tabloid began targeting him, including asking him for comment on a piece that implicated Farrow in a fabricated "Brazilian sex romp" with another reporter who had written critically about AMI. Howard has denied Farrow's version of events.
"It arrived from the publishers yesterday and sold like hotcakes," the bookseller said. "It sold much better than either of the Booker [prize] winners. We're happy to sell it until someone tells us not to."
