Hi Rich, I tried to post that exact title and the Gulch told me it already existed. Wow, how quick this digital world works today.
Unfortunately we use Costco quite a bit. I read the second story about how they decided to drop it based on sales and the NYT Best Seller List as their guide line. "America" will be going on the NYT list on July 13th, and as I understand it, it should be there now but the NYT decided to ignore it for a while, not listing it. It's also interesting that Hillary's book is still in Costco, I thought I heard it wasn't selling well. It would be interesting also to verify the Best Sellers standings on these books and see if Costco makes another adjustment and brings "America" back again. I'm ordering a copy today just to get the sales up, and I've already seen the movie.
Hi Neal. Good point about Hillary's book. Sales have been dismal with no reason to expect improvement. Why take America out when the movie is in theaters? This is when sales would peak.
We dropped our membership over a year ago when it became apparent that they were politically active and seem to desire a progressive society. My issue was a gun control thing at the time, so this move isn't surprising. I like their concept, but don't like their politics, so there are other places to go--thank goodness.
I'd like to hear an explanation from the company. They have the right to remove the book but they should have been prepared to say why. They had to know the question would be asked.
After being curiously omitted from the NYT bestseller list, Dinesh D’Souza’s ‘America’ rises up the charts
