As we noted this week, the Fox News “mole,” Joe Muto, has been shopping a memoir detailing his eight years at the channel. Our sister blog GalleyCat notes that he has already sold it.
Penguin Group’s Dutton Imprint will publish the book in early 2013.
Muto, “a self described bleeding heart liberal,” wrote An Atheist in the Foxhole to recount his eight years at Fox which includes his time working with political commentator Bill O’Reilly… Executive editor Jill Schwartzman oversaw this acquisition and secured world rights.

No word on how much the advance was, but Gawker pegs it at “low six-figures.”
