Buy This Book

I wrote about Glenn Greenwald’s new book “A Tragic Legacy: How a Good vs. Evil Mentality Destroyed the Bush Presidency” over the week-end and hosted his appearance over at Firedoglake’s Book Salon. It was a very interesting discussion about a fine book from a fine writer.

Unfortunately, because Glenn hails from the scruffy blogosphere instead of the sanctioned halls of Versailles on the Potomac, it doesn’t appear that he is going to get the media support this book deserves, despite his track record as a writer and a book author. (They don’t want him coming in and trashing the place…) So, it would be nice if we could prove to the publishing world that we don’t actually need Matt Lauer and Anderson Cooper to sell books. We have millions of readers ourselves who will support our own writers.

If you were inclined to do it, it would be great if you’d buy Glenn’s book through Amazon today and help put it to number one on their list. It’s one of the ways we can support our own media — and get the word out that helping Ann Coulter sell her books in bulk to Richard Scaife is a less profitable way to sell books — because they build no real relationship with readers. We do.
