Funny stat: Fahrenheit 9/11 vs. FahrenHYPE 9/11
The website DVD Aficionado is a great tool for cataloging one's DVD collection. DVD Aficionado has tens of thousands of DVDs in their database and many thousands of users. There is no discernible political tilt to the site's user base.

One of the coolest features is the ability to see how many DVD Aficionado users list a particular DVD among their collections (including the categories "owned," "on order," "wish list," and "have seen"). This "who's got it" feature returns the following numbers for the various DVD editions of Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11:

Fahrenheit 9/11 (U.S. DVD): 1185
Fahrenheit 9/11 (Canadian DVD): 49
Fahrenheit 9/11 (U.K. DVD, just released yesterday): 10
Total copies of Fahrenheit 9/11: 1244

But what of FahrenHYPE 9/11, the clumsy right-wing "answer" to Moore's record-breaking documentary?

Total copies of FahrenHYPE 9/11: 49

:D

1. "Itsh a LYE!!" - Ed Koch.
Has about as much maturity as Michael Moore is a Big Fat Stupid White Man.

2. this trend holds true...
for all anti-*ush media. All best sellers, can't give away GOP trash retaliatory books and films. Which should make clear just how phony the polls are, if cow-bugger had the loyal following they profess, why don't they buy their trashy novels and such?

3. Alot of the right wing books are printed by new publishers
The discount book stores show the numbers very plainly.Piles of Coulter,O'Reilly and all the others sit in stacks as unwanted as junk mail .
