UPDATE:
Diane Dimond: Be Careful Who You Trust
Diane Dimond of Entertainment Tonight is writing a book about Michaele and Tareq Salahi of the Real Housewives of Washington DC. The couple is known for gate crashing the first White House State Dinner for India’s Prime Minister in November 2009.
Diane Dimond is working on a new book that she says will not only disprove that the socialites crashed President Obama’s first state dinner, but will also reveal, among other details, why the White House chose not to clear their names.
"There’s a whole sub-text to the story here that involves reality television and the way journalism is practiced today and the way that new administrations handle themselves with the Secret Service," Dimond said during a telephone interview Friday. "And I think it’s got a lot of layers and texture to it. I’ve been a journalist a long time. And there’s almost always a deeper story to be told that we the media don’t get the time or we’re not allowed to tell it."
Dimond met the Salahis when she was assigned to interview them for "Entertainment Tonight." Having covered the White House earlier in her career, Dimond said the story that the politically connected couple had crashed the state dinner for India’s prime minster never sat right with her. So she started digging for information, calling Secret Service sources and other Washington insiders.Complicating the matter was that the Salahis were under contract with Bravo for their reality show and could not speak publicly about the events surrounding Nov. 24, 2009, Dimond said. In fact, Bravo’s camera crews had been following the couple that day, capturing Michaele Salahi as she got her hair done for the dinner and Tareq Salahi as he ordered his tuxedo, she said. The cameras even followed them to the White House doors as they arrived, Dimond said.
