book publishers that keep giving out those huge advances to leftists for books that never sell should go out of business

You know very well that book advances are often tied to political contributions.

A quick, easy and legal way to make them.

Now I certainly "get" why Hillary's book got a 15 million dollar advance, she's the democratic front runner.

But I'm certain that the book sales didn't even come close to covering 1/10th of the advance.

Really, Hillary got 10 million for "Living History".

Who's stupid enough to buy her second book full of feces?

I will admit, though that I don't get what publisher thought Lena Dunham is some kind of "genius" who "speaks for her generation".

3.7 MILLION?

Dunham isn't an ex-President, nor anyone particularly relevant.

I'm not getting the angle here.

The average American wants to know how she molested her sister?

Maybe Dunham has some political relevance for the democrats.

But now THAT has been shot to hell.

Notice how her libel "lawsuit" against National Review" has gone strangely....quiet.
