Journalist Jonah Lehrer, an ex-staff writer at The New Yorker, has admitted to fabricating Bob Dylan quotes in his book, "Imagine: How Creativity Works." Another journalist, Michael C. Moynihan, questioned the authenticity of the quotes in Lehrer's book. Lehrer has since resigned from The New Yorker. Copies of his book have been recalled by Houghton Miffin Harcourt

If Bob Dylan can fabricate his quotes, why can't Lehrer?

Lerher's just jealous because even though his stupid songs are intelligible, Bob Dylan's marbles-in-mouth albums have always outsold his.

oh, sorry, wrong Lerher
