His credits include twenty-one books that sold over 30 million copies worldwide. In addition to writing 14 bestsellers, he wrote hundreds of articles that appeared in all of the major magazines and newspapers of the day.

He was also known for the practice of checkbook journalism, paying subjects to gain interviews and articles about them. In January 1956 he published an interview in ''Look'' magazine in which two of the six white men who killed Emmett Till admitted their guilt and described their crime. He could not acquire releases from the other four, so he altered the story to fit his narrative. They had been acquitted at trial several months previously by an all-white jury. Six of Huie's books were adapted as f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
