Megyn's book

I went to Costco Friday to stock up on Groceries. I always go by the book display to see if there is anything new. I happen to see Megyn Kelly's new book on the shelves and noticed that not one single copy had been sold. There was two rows of her book fully stocked and not one was gone. Nobody looking. From what I hear it's all about her.

    It is memoir.

    Who did you expect it to be about?

    And so? It's supposed to be about her. Furthermore, how can you be sure that the book hasn't been restocked entirely, already?[:o)][:o)]

    Someone's buying it.

    http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/megyn-kelly-memoir-debuts-at-no-1-on-new-york-times-best-sellers-list/312115

    It is also No. 1 across a few categories on Amazon, despite a large number of false negative reviews from Trump supporters who were crying about the book without even reading it.

    As stated before:

    Megyn's book rated at 2 1/4 stars on list. Not so hot.
    Bernie sanders is a 5 star.

    I get such a kick out of you thin-skinned little Trumpettes. 60-odd reviews in the New York Times comes out with a 2.5 out of 5, and 350-odd reviews on Amazon comes out with a 4.5 out of 5. It is even more revealing when you look at the responses from verified purchasers.

    https://www.amazon.com/Settle-More-Megyn-Kelly/product-reviews/0062494600/ref=cm_cr_dp_see_all_btm?ie=UTF8&reviewerType=all_reviews&showViewpoints=1&sortBy=recent

    Not really a fan of Ms. Kelly, so I won't but the book, but do like to see the leftists at the NYT and the leftists in the Trump camp get their panties in a bunch over it.

    I have not watched FOX news, or much of any news for that matter, in YEARS. I do not know what the kerfuffle was over Trump and Megan but I can tell you this.

    Megan Kelly would look wonderful bearing several of my children. She could also keep me in a guns and gear lifestyle that I could grow accustomed too. Yes, I will be a house husband, well kept and flying a new Cessna TTX like the one in the link.

    Megan, keep writing hon, your Bruce awaits your call.

    You sound jealous. Is it because of the difficult time you have reading or writing?

    I don't put much stock in the NYT best seller list. While the WSJ uses Neilson's Book Scan to track book sales, the NYT samples a series of sellers that it will not identify. The instances of a book with far more sales being lower on the NYT list isn't even what one could call a rarity.

    One of the not-at-all surprising quirks is the apparent quality of books written by NYT employees. Those are famous for being of such magnificence that they will go higher and stay longer on the list than non-employees in just about every case.

    Another funny little 'coincidence' is that left leaning books and authors manage to achieve rarified NYT Best Seller status more often and for longer than more conservative books and authors.

    No one knows why.

    This is news?

    I couldn't give a poop less who she is, or what her book has in it. I'm glad I keep myself occupied to the point that trivial cow cookies like her and her book mean so little to me that it can't be measured with conventional methods.

    The unit of measure you are looking for is the nano-give-a-chit. One ten thousandth of a micro-give-a-chit.

    I usually only read factual history or technical books. I have no interest what so ever in stardom or celebrities except I did read the biography of John Wayne. Megyn Kelly does not interest me in the least. I can see where her story might be of interest to a young women trying to get some where in this world. When I access a women I ask my self how I would like to be married to her. I would not want to be married to a women that was a gorgeous attorney and a vindictive one at that. Leave me out of that contest, please.
    We will see how the book does in a month or so.

    I never had any problem reading these books. They cost about $35,000.00
