No one reads or buys these political memoirs of contemporary politicians anyway.

These book contracts are just a form of corporate payola for career Washington pols.

Amazon is on deck pulling all conservative books


Bezos is a little leftist tyrant.

When Amazon first appeared on the scene more than two decades ago, I was ecstatic that I could get my hands on any book I wanted.

Now I'm trying to get away from them.

Amazon is biggest platform out there for indie books, but it's not the only one.

Don't feed the BEAST.

You wouldn't know a coup from a fricking chicken house you spineless keyboard warrior.

The only thing that was missing yesterday was more Antifa getting their skulls cracked.

I like our public library. We already pay for them with tax dollars. They offer eBooks and traditional books.

Does Beezos own Barnes and Noble yet?

ETA: Inter-library loan is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. I can get all kinds of stuff that way.

Don’t you have to be actually in office and in
power in order to be subject to a coup? You didn’t think through your logic. You just wanted to bleed out so as to be on the “right side.”

I hope people aren’t dumb enough to think this actually is because of what happened yesterday and not because he was attacking big tech

This was the result of straight up lies from the Democrat Party:

quote:

Democratic political and communications staffer Celeste Pewter led a campaign online to email S&S protesting the publication of Hawley’s book. She wrote, “Hey publishing community: Josh Hawley has a book coming out from @simonschuster. Boycott, protest, and let S&S know how you feel about them releasing a book from someone who’s stoking sedition and directly responsible for what’s unfolding today.” Others speaking out included Vox writer Constance Grady who asked, “What responsibility does publishing bear for platforming and profiting off of incitements to violence?” and agent Erin Murphy, who called on her fellow agents to email ceo Jonathan Karp.


Publishers Marketplace

This is CCP style censorship. Directives going out from the party to the corporate world.

S & S published both of Rush Limbaugh's books.

This is fricked up.
