Oops! Publisher Removes Curious Mention of Presidential Run From Scott’s Book

The publishing company Thomas Nelson publicly acknowledged the printing mistake and said that they are working to correct the error.

Despite what his upcoming memoir says, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) is apparently not preparing to run for president. Publishing company Thomas Nelson publicly acknowledged that it had mistakenly indicated otherwise with small lettering on the copyright page of America, a Redemption Story that says, “This book is a political memoir that includes his core messages as he prepares to make a presidential bid in 2022.” (The next presidential election is in 2024.) The publishing company told The Post and Courier that neither Scott nor his team approved the sentence and a spokesperson said they are “working to correct this immediately.” How that correction will be made, however, remains unclear, as the pre-sale period for the book has begun and a national release is scheduled for August 9.
