Cindy's book is being FREEPED on Amazon!
I think this actually does warrants a thread of it's own. I just ordered the book- I like folks who are bright, yet down to earth and plain spoken. That is why I like Michael Moore so much as well.
the other thing they have in common of course if being top targets of the Spew on Cue Crew. Therefore her customer reviews are being FREEPED and some really awful stuff written.
I know a bit how it feels, (as I'm sure many of us do) because my blog was freeped by a blogger who advocates killing her and other dissidents, on his blog, which caused me to cut off the comments option of my own. I really did not even want his link on my blog.

1. Report them as "inappropriate"
Those with Amazon accounts or who are willing to create an account (name, email, password required) can report the "reviews" as inappropriate.

I'm on my way over.

See some of you there.

3. Done
I don't usually report reviews as inappropriate but when it is obvious that the reviewer hasn't read the book then I have no problem doing it.

4. 'xactly. Difference of opinion, okay, I hate it but can live with it.
Those reviews are obviously nothing more than juvenile attempts at "killing the messenger."

Some of those kids need to get a life ... or enlist. Way too much time on their hands (she says as she sits here posting Sunday morning).

2. If you haven't read the book then you shouldn't be commenting
You are able to report the reviews that are inappropriate and hopefully they will be removed.

7. Unbelievable/not:)
I think if people have read excerpts and articles by the author, and write an honest opinion - based on what they have read by the author- it's OK, but not to lie about it. also it is what is being said- just outright attacks and very mean.
But I think it is good to report the obvious outright nasty attack as inappropriate.
If some just said they disagree with her opinions, or after they read the book, actually say why they don't like it that's fine. these are very nasty and oganized people attacking her.
