I think that is bull. I have never had trouble finding conservative authors from B&N.
I have been to B&Ns in liberal districts and cities. Never had trouble finding any book.
I’ve never had any problems in my local B&N. Even in the weeks following Sandy Hook, they never hid any of the gun or hunting magazines. The were where they always were in the past.
What I have seen is conservative directed authors/book which are hidden behind leftist books. Mostly kiddie BS.
I think it’s awful that brick and mortar books stores and hard copy book industry is suffering.
B&N attracts libs, so what? I never have trouble finding what I need in there and they are always helpful in ordering.
AND they can orwellian alter books for the PC moment de jour.

In my neighborhood it attracts homeless people and deadbeat students, not people buying books, so stores tend to get shuttered.
Spineless ....
NOT a Bookmark!
If you don't want them to get at the machine, turn off Wi-Fi. They could still reach you if they tried hard enough but they most likely won't.
People go to brick and mortar stores to browse, then go online to buy. Really, you’d have to be crazy not to, though I do make the occasional “guilt” purchase.
These days, having a physical footprint isn’t a winning business model—especially if it just provides a showroom for competing online vendors.
And one more thing - I believe if you use that method the files you’ve downloaded will only work on your specific Kindle.
To me I have to way shipping cost along with the actual price.
My blood runs cold, my division was just sold,
My CEO is a centerfold
If I buy a book at a brick-and-mortar store, I walk out with my book, just the one item if I want only that, without feeling compelled to buy enough other items to qualify for free shipping.
I collect old school books....algebra, English, etc...and other “important” books....some day, when the EMP hits...I’ll be the RICHEST person in the world. /s Sorta
I’ve saved a lot of old history books. “Old history” needs to be maintained by as many of us as can!
Yikes.
Yes. You can get almost any books on Amazon. If not, go to www.bookfinder.com. ;)
