X17 XCLUSIVE: Tell-All Author Calls Britney An "Innocent Victim"!

The following italicized article is from www.x17online.com:

X17 can XCLUSIVELY reveal that, during a recent interview with Life & Style, Ian Halperin - author of a forthcoming expose about Britney Spears - characterized the pop princess as "an innocent victim" doing her best to be a good mother to Sean and Jayden. "I've seen her with her sons several times in the past year and a half," Halperin told the mag. "She's actually a very caring mom."

In fact, Halperin even goes so far as to call Britney a better parent than a certain recent Father of the Year winner! "[E]veryone close to the scene thinks she's a much more fit parent than Kevin [Federline]," Halperin ventured, pointing out that Federline "goes out more often" and "parties harder".

What do you think, Britney fans - does Halperin's sympathy for Britney make you more or less likely to buy the book?
