Amazon Has Removed Over 200 Reviews of Pelosi's Book
Amazon.com Discussion Boards ^ | August 4th | PittsburghAfterDark
I don't know how to classify this as far as being "newsworthy" but it's certainly interesting how Left Coast companies and individuals are acting in regards to the debacle Nancy Pelosi's book has become from a sales standpoint and PR disaster.
Amazon.com has deleted hundreds of posts and reviews and caused numerous "Amazon Prime" cancellations due to their heavy handed censorship of their buying community. Now I've read the consumer reviews of this book on and off since Friday and while obviously many didn't read the book, just like the Ann Coulter "reviews", the anti-Ann reviews remain while those critical of Commissar Pelosi are removed one, twice and thrice daily.
If you're shopping for videos, games, software, books etc. keep these things in mind. Amazon.com simply will not accept criticism of leftist books on their reviews and forums and will censor them accordingly.

Well, not quite. I visited the Pelosi book site on Amazon and it's filled with reviews critical of Pelosi's book. In fact, it appears to be an organized response by anti-pelosi right wingers.
One reviewer claimed his post was deleted by Amazon, but he later posted another critical review, which I was able to read.
Who is PittsburghAfterDark? Apparently, he's a right wing pal of cjsha.

Why do you keep trying to "expose" right wingers BBB?
I imagine you'd be one of those journalistic douchebags that would publish the name and address of every concealed weapons permit holder in the newspaper. Am I right?

What a good idea!
Are you going to shoot me for my uppityness?

No, but if you did that, someone might. I wouldn't convict them.
Anyway, Pelosi's book sucks - it started at something like #789 and dropped like a stone from there.
