Palin's book is already being sold @ a loss.

[Botany]

Driving from Wisconsin to Ohio today my radio scanned to the Rush Limbaugh show .....
An add came on from News Max and they were selling Palin's book $4.95 w/ a subscription
to their publication too.

I guess the jacket price for the book is $29.95 ...... the promo kept saying that
Palin's new book is already a best seller ...... :rofl:

[old mark]

1. Last week it was selling for around $10, now $4.95 as a "bonus"....

Palin wasted no time cashing that check, I'm sure.....

All those dead trees for no reason.

4. Marked down 2 times even before it is released.

I see it going for $1.99 on a table outside a Barnes and Noble near you.

13. What's weird is it's been the #1 bestseller on Amazon since the day they began taking pre-orders.

[old mark]

15. Wierd as in hard to understand how that's true......

:shrug:
Amazon wouldn't lie, certainly.....

22. And News Max, along with other right wing organizations

wouldn't buy truckloads to use as promotional items in order to inflate initial sales figures. That surely couldn't happen. Could it?
:shrug:

2. Stephen Kings new one as well - a price war not a failure of the writer

7. They're in a price war with WalMart.

6. How many people who follow Palin have read a book?

If they do read, can they comprehend or are they capable of critical thinking?

[Botany]

9. What are the chances that Palin even read the book?

Let alone wrote the thing.

[gratuitous]

12. Oh, some librul journalist will hit her with that "gotcha" question

But our Sarah's too smart by half to fall for that obvious trap. Watch her deflect those pesky questions with "In what respect are you asking if I've read my own book?" Also.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

14. Interview: "Can you talk your book Ms. Palin?" "I'll get back to ya on that"

[Obamanaut]

17. That seems harsh toward DUers, considering the number of threads

that continue to appear about Sarah and the rest of the family.

[gordianot]

23. Sorry I should have stated "followers" as apposed to follows. A poor choice of words on my part.

I do follow stories about Sarah, and I read a couple books a week since I abandoned broadcast media. A poor choice of words on my part. Sarah does not seem to want to go away anytime soon.

A former friend whom I know can read obviously does not, he gets his news from Fox and an odious source called newsbusters. He recently told me he does not read books on politics and has recently quit reading even his French news magazines because they praise Obama and degrade Sarah Palin.

20. I follow her out of self-preservation,

and, yes, I read ... although chances are good I won't be reading her book.

8. I'm gonna wait for a week after release

until it's at the 99 Cent Store..then maybe I'll buy a bunch of them because they're cheaper than fire wood.

[damntexdem]

10. Going Rough.

LOL!

[IsItJustMe]

11. I seen it in a book store the other day for 40 per cent off. Not a good sign for a book just

released. Guess there are not enough right wing Faux news luvin wack jobs out there to buy it.

[DearAbby]

16. Going Rogue will be on Sale at your local Dollar Store

buy one get on free!

[burning rain]

18. It'll be a good value if it shows up at the dollar stores.

19. This one looks like an instant classic for only $12.00

Comes out the same day as Palin's craptastic memoirs:

21. It might be interesting to read, in a watching a horrific freeway car crash sort of way

but if I ever read it I will pick it up used at the Goodwill store so I don't contribute one penny to Palin's bank account.
