DU THREAD: Conservative books sell better than liberal books. Why? (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021186593) Original Post by cali

I love it when idiots try to rationalize something they have no way of rationalizing except in their own minds. Case in point: Literary sales, conservative vs. liberal books with sales. By the way here is a graphic of the heat map the DUmprat is referring to: (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/files/2012/08/Amazon-heat-map.jpg) Onward! Quote OP. cali (Moocher) - Thu Aug 23, 2012 (1:38 pm) Original Post - Post Count: 73,277 Conservative books sell better than liberal books. Why? Posted by Ezra Klein on August 22, 2012 at 3:47 pm   The fine folks at Amazon have constructed a “heat map” showing the kinds of political books that people are buying across the country. The more conservative a state’s literary tastes, the more red it appears on the map. The more liberal the reading habits, the bluer the state gets. Here’s the result: Conservative authors are selling more books. That’s true in Mississippi, but it’s also true in Connecticut. And it looks like Amazon’s methodology is, if anything, understating matters. They count Jonathan Haidt’s “The Righteous Mind” as a “blue book.” I’ve read “The Righteous Mind,” and it is, if anything, a scolding of liberals. They also count “Globalization: A Very Short Introduction” and Robert Caro’s most recenet biography of LBJ as blue books, which seems odd. None of the top 20 “red books” struck me as similarly misplaced. So if you correct for the outliers, the map would be even redder. Some possible explanations: 1. Conservatives are more likely to read political books than liberals are. 2. Conservatives are more likely to read partisan political books than liberals are. 3. Conservatives are better at writing political books that people want to read than liberals are. <snip> http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/wp/2012/08/22/conservative-books-sell-better-than-liberal-books-why/ (http://ef=) According to the map there are only 3 states where "blue" reading outpaces "red" reading- plus D.C.  And only one state is deep blue- and D.C. NORMAL people would say that conservative books sell more because, well, conservative policies make SENSE. DUH!! But that would only infuriate the DUmprats. Let's take a gander at what's being said.

THAT'S IT! We buy all the books up IMMEDIATLY and then GIVE THEM AWAY!! One problem: the people producing (publishing) the books would make no money. But hey, whatever sounds good... so let's go with it. Quote 14. Cleita (Star Member) - Thu Aug 23, 2012 (1:47 pm) Reply to arcane1 (#2) - Post Count: 58,600 Bingo! What a lot of people don't know is that the best seller lists are compiled from the number of books sold by the publisher, not the retailer. If the Heritage Foundation buys the bulk of one of Sean Hannity's screeds, he instantly becomes a best seller whether or not Barne's & Noble sells even one copy. If you go to a lot of these right wing think tank's websites, you will see offers for those books to be had for a generous discount and often free for donating to them or other just as a gift for requesting a copy. Here's an example: http://www.askheritage.org/become-a-member/ (http://ef=) I suppose what's left over makes a nice fire in the hearth at winter. Ahhh... notice the Amazon sales, which are a far more accurate metric for determining end user (retail consumer) sales than virtually any other metric, actually corresponds with the Best Selling lists, and they even have an aggregate calculation method which tallies up the TOTAL take on book sales. Liberal books actually are discounted at GREATER numbers in SHORTER times following pulibcation than conservative books. But don't tell the DUmprats that little detail. We move on... Quote 42. Johonny (Moocher) - Thu Aug 23, 2012 (2:24 pm) Reply to Cleita (#14) - Post Count: 10,175 why don't retailers list books by how they sell in their store? instead of going by these best seller lists.  I go into stores and see piles of the latest conservative crap not sold on the shelves listed in the order they were bought in bulk.  You'd think box book stores would know their internal market better.  Or maybe they do.  I guess that's the question; do retail book dealers go by books sold by publisher or by their real in store sales when deciding to buy and market books?  Because going by publisher numbers seems crazy, although I think they have less to lose since they can sell them back to the publisher.  Still why waste shelf space on things no one wants in their store?

That should explain what is going on better and why the conservative books are often in abundant supply and so cheap. I would really like to see one of our liberal think tanks compile lists of books actually sold at the retail level, when a book is first printed and released from the publisher, to get a better picture of exactly what the man on the street is buying in the stores and over the internet on an individual basis. Maybe they are "cheap" because they are part of sales promotions. They KNOW these books sell, so they make them "cheap" because they let end users buy more in greater quantities, making more PROFITS for the bookstore owner! In addition, they are sold cheaper so that now the end user can mingle among the aisles and buy OTHER less publicized books at full prices. Ohhh...but that would be a GREEDY, CAPITALIST position, wouldn't it...

Because, that's exactly what is going on.  If it's not some organization buying large numbers of them to give out with new memberships, etc., it's individuals purchasing several of them to give as gifts to all of their friends and relatives, because they think the recipient "needs" to read it.  And, I have seen far more of those "conservative" best-sellers on shelf at the Dollar Tree than I have seen lefty books.  Somebody here on DU mentioned seeing a bunch of Sarah Palin's book in the 3/$1 pile at their local dollar store, and they were off to be pulped, because nobody would buy them. Quote 37. Cleita (Star Member) - Thu Aug 23, 2012 (2:17 pm) Reply to GoCubsGo (#32) - Post Count: 58,600 The $1 books are what is known as remainders. When retail stores can't sell the books, they have a  window of opportunity to return the books to the publishers, who then dump them on the remainder market for mostly the cost of the paper they were printed on. Then they are bought by discounters like the Dollar Stores. The fact that there are more conservative books than lefty books tells the story that those were the books, Barnes & Noble, Amazon and et al couldn't sell and had to return.

Chiyo-chichi (Star Member) - Thu Aug 23, 2012 (2:52 pm) Reply to arcane1 (#2) - Post Count: 2,009 I know this is true, but how do you account for the Kindle edition sales? If you go to the map on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/election-heatmap (http://ef=)) and click around, you'll see that very often the same book is in the top 5 in a given state in both hardcover and Kindle edition. And on many of the state lists, 3 out of the top 5 sellers on the liberal or conservative list are Kindle editions. I think the reason must be a combination of bulk sales and promotion on conservative talk radio, as someone says down-thread. On another note: the Kindle anniversary edition of Atlas Shrugged is on the conservative Top 5 seller list in just about every state? I find that surprising and a bit hard to believe. Ha! Pretty much sums up my own reasoning with the business marketing acquisition one above! OK, let's go to reason number two... blame Rush Limbaugh!

I'm guessing the vast AM network of moronic pot-stirrers has a lot to do with it.

And if some AM hate dj recommends a book, the mindless listeners all march out in lock step to buy it. Ha ha ha... "mindless listeners in lock step!" "Captive demographic."

They prefer being in denial to facing the fact that there is a huge market for what the likes of Limbaugh and Hannity have to offer. If they ever admitted as much, it would make a lie of their mantra that their policies reflect the desires of average Americans.

They consider themselves the intellectual elite, yet somehow don't realize that to be elite would mean that they were badly outnumbered. Instead, they try to downplay the conservative movement in this country as "a small, but very vocal minority."

The DUches do have a point that organizations will buy large amounts of liberal and conservative books depending on their leaning and use them as enticements for membership and marketing. However, these organizations buy them direct and not from Amazon. The Amazon numbers are from real people so their theory is shit.

One reason may be that conservatives don't destroy as many words as liberals do via Political Correctness, hence conservatives have a wider vocabulary, hence their books have a greater chance of being more interesting than the standard, "See Che Kill" books that liberals write.

Gallup has been telling you idiots that liberals comprise only 20% of the population, for decades.  You simply refuse to believe it, preferring the buzzing inside your hive instead.  But, like DAT, I enjoy watching you fall into self-delusion and remaining there.  Always getting your opposition exactly wrong.

FIRST BOX OFFICE: Anti-Obama Movie #1 (http://www.deadline.com/2012/08/first-box-office-anti-obama-movie-1/)

Excerpts:

Quote

FRIDAY 2 PM: The anti-Obama movie 2016 Obama’s America went into wider release around America today and is opening right now in first place at the domestic box office. That’s quite a feat since the Rocky Mountain Pictures political documentary is still playing in only 1,090 North American theaters – or about 1/3 as many theaters as big-budget actioner The Expendables 2 (3,355 theaters).

...

2016 Obama’s America detractors decry it as a slick infomercial heavy with conspiracy theories. But D’Souza says he made the film to motivate moviegoers to question what an Obama second term would look like, and credits liberal documentary maker Michael Moore for the structure of the film: “When he released Fahrenheit 9/11 in 2004 ahead of the election, it sparked intense debate. I learned some lessons from Michael Moore, and hopefully he might learn some lessons from me about handling facts.”

 :rofl: Obama got the Mickey Moore treatment, and the libs are apoplectic. Classic !

Now here we are years later, -Rush is still on the air, as is Hannity, et al - and not only are conservatives dominating the airwaves, FOX News is still a ratings giant, and more and more American political websites are conservative leaning. Rut Ro Shaggy...
