'Something posing as objective data is actually rigged'!
Conservative authors long have charged the New York Times with skewing its best-seller list against them, but now, citing the Times low ranking of Dinesh DSouzas latest best-seller, a major publisher is severing its ties with the paper of record.
Regnery, pointing to Nielsen BookScans figures, based on actual sales through major retailers, contends the Times is rigging its list, ranking DSouzas The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi Roots of the American Left below books with half as many sales.
Theres been a lot of talk about the New York Times being fake news, but now we can see the New York Times best-seller list is also fake, DSouza said in an interview with WND.
Over the past four weeks, DSouzas book which, as WND reported, contends fascism is a left-wing ideology that has been falsely labeled extreme right was either No. 1 or No. 2 in sales, according to BookScan, but shows up at No. 7 on the upcoming Times list.

We don’t know the day or the hour (Matt 24:36) but we are the Children of Light and should know the times and the seasons which are upon us (1 Thessalonians 5:1, 5).
We are in the last days and we can talk more about that if you’d like.
I think Breitbart needs a Book Review section. If they add a crossword, it’ll be most of what was worth reading the NYT for after Lewinskygate, until even that was not enough.
Miramax, Dreamworks...
Mirimax isn’t a studio. It’s a distribution network. Dreamworks isn’t a studio, it’s a company that supplies product to the Studios. (Ya can’t tell the players without a scorecard).
But I get your point.
Good idea.

I wouldn't attribute the American left to Nazism, though it's hardly worth arguing about, the suppression of the masses motive is the same. But the American left predates Hitler. The impact of the American left, particularly on issues of race, had a major impact on a certain Austrian corporal. That should be ignored.
Suggested it to Bannon. He liked it a lot.
Suggested they have a review and a “best seller” section as well.
Actually I knew that, having worked on an aspect of E&M for some years. I just find them particularly annoying adjuncts to the river of bile flowing out of that town.
Good to hear. I'd like to write reviews of conservative books, other media.
Why doesn’t the National Review or American Spectator, or even the NY Post make its own bestseller list.
He said it. I didn’t. Let the fireworks begin. I’ll watch from afar.
Popcorn for all non-Christians, and advice to stay out of it. I like Christians, and some aspects of Christianity are pretty neat. But this forum is about politics, and that’s what interests me.
Edward Bellamy wrote one of the best selling books of its day (1888), entitled "Looking Backward" a Socialist utopian work of fiction. It was the third best selling fiction book in the USA during the 19th century, behind Uncle Tom's Cabin and Ben Hur. He coined the term "Nationalist" to rebrand the term "Socialist" as he felt it would be more easily accepted by the public.
The Nazis (i.e. Nationalist Socialists) adopted not only that as the primary term for their ideology, but also the stiff-armed salutes used by the Nationalist Clubs of Bellamy's followers (which later merged into the People's Party, which itself merged into the Democratic Party, getting the Vice President slot from the Democrats in 1896). These were not just a few cosmetic similarities, but rather a continuation of the whole political movement, grafted onto German national/ethnic themes and mythology.
The decades of work performed by the USA's Democrat Party in the American South crafting laws to enshrine racial segregation, as well as the Federal bureaucratic segregation instituted by the Wilson Administration, were consciously lifted whole cloth by the Nazis to institue their racial policies.
The eugenics programs of the Nazis were built on (probably inspired by) those of American "Progressives", like Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, and Leftist Brits like John Maynard Keynes, Director of the British Eugenics Society (right up until 1944). Many prominent Democrats like Joe Kennedy (then Ambassador to England) openly approved of the Nazi political platform, and the Democrat Party supporting Time Magazine named Herr Hitler its Man of the Year for 1938. FDR was enamored of Giovanni Gentile (the "Philosopher of Facism", Mussolini's Philosopher") and distributed Gentile's book to his cabinet. The Nazis were actually not that much of an innovation at all in the political spectrum, but their roots among their forerunners in America (now the Democratic Party) have been firmly pushed down the memory hole by Leftist teacher's unions and the media. They now pretend they were ideologically the opposite of the Nazis. What Chutzpah.
