Amazon Says ‘No Evidence’ Ted Cruz Books Sold In Bulk Purchases {NY Times caught lying again]
Daily Caller ^ | 07/13/2015 | RACHEL STOLTZFOOS

Amazon backed Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in his fight against The New York Times Monday, saying there is “no evidence” his book sales are driven by “strategic bulk purchases.”

The Cruz campaign accused The NYT Friday of lying when it said his new book, “A Time For Truth,” did not make the bestseller list because a bulk of its sales came from “strategic bulk purchases.”

Cruz and his publisher, HarperCollins, said Friday the books were not sold in bulk.

“A Time For Truth ranked high on the other publishing industry bestseller lists including Nielsen Bookscan (#4), a subscription service that tracks the vast majority of book sales in America, The Wall Street Journal (#4) and Barnes and Noble (#7),” HarperCollins publicity director Tina Andreadis said in a statement provided to BuzzFeed.

"NY Times caught lying again"

In other news, the sun shines, and water is wet.

Indeed. I do not know why it’s not already in a court. The FIRST thing we should be doing is lawfare every time the libs pull this. Because it works.

MAKE THEM go to court.

DISCLOSURE and DISCOVERY folks.

Why didn’t they just ask Joe Wilson, he would have told the truth.

Discovery would be a hoot!

So the NYT claims that Cruz's book was from "bulk sales"?

OK, NYT, we'll play. Release the numbers and sales figures on Hillary's SECOND autobiography.

I can almost understand why some liberals would have bought "Living History". But a SECOND autobiography? No way in hell.

That has money laundering written all over it.

It was also a dirty trick to deny him the #1 position and limits sales (#2s are considered ‘also rans’).

Who were the people going gaga for Barack Obama’s autobiography before he did anything?
