I agree. I was on staff at a nonprofit and after calling the Senator's office, I came to realize the speaking fee for his presentation at one of our meetings-- an appearance that was meant to include copies of his book on healthcare for us to give to participating law makers and state level lobbyists-- did not actually include the books. This may have been as much or more the fault of the publisher than the Senator, but the result was that our seminar attendees never received copies of his book as had been agreed to as part of our $2,000 payment for his appearance (in lieu of Honorarium we thought we were purchasing books for him to autograph onsite, but the books never arrived, before or even after the event). A Senate gov website narrative at this link sums up the Censure vote and background as to what led to the investigation. https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/censure_cases/141DavidDurenberger.htm (Note: digitalized articles in the New York Times archives also describe the early days of the ethics probe.)
