In 2016, Fields accused Donald Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski of grabbing her arm at a press conference.

At the time, Fields was a reporter for Breitbart, but resigned her position in March 2016, due to the organization's handling of the Lewandowski incident.

The book was quickly edited close to the time of release in order to include an accounting of Fields' incident involving the Trump campaign.
