Barnes and Noble in Frisco, Texas. Right wing books in bargain bin |
|
Saw two different areas where Malkin's book on Obama was displayed. Many, many unsold books on prominent display in two different areas - with the big 30 percent off tag. Don't buy into the best seller bullshit - Barnes and Noble couldn't move Malkin's book as cheap toilet paper.

4. Bestseller with RW crap |
|
is almost if not always due to bulk buys by the whacko's at the "conservative book club" and other organizations that soon offer then as free gifts for joining. There is no one better than these pricks at gaming the "bestseller" system. Honestly, I know of nobody that has ever bought a book by any of these shits and I know some really rightwing idiots, they don't have the cash to buy hardcovers.

9. Exacatactally--and libraries end up with dozens of copies that don't move and generally never sell |
|
at Friends of the Library sales, either. For a long time the NYT would put a dagger by these so-called "bestsellers" for that very reason; I['m not certain why they stopped the practice.

I work at a Texas BN. Each time I sell one of Malkin's books I just think hmm they must be doing research.

6. I saw a knuckledragger thumbing through the Malkin book in a mall and he told |
|
the woman with him that he was going to buy it. She looked at him like she was thinking "I didn't know you could read".
