You're probably correct concerning the bent of this website; however, is it *possible* the publishers of the Liberal pap pay for this "service" while Coulter's et al, don't?
Consider Fox and especially Fox's local affiliates, they report a few top local & national headlines, maybe.
Soon as it's over they're off shilling their own American Idle and then then their "special features".
Special features that aren't so special, can only be explained as "pay-to-play" stuff.
Fox sports is even worse.
While all the alphabets do the same, Fox was the first to turn the shtick into a genuine science.
After seeing the disgraceful "reporting" of what's obviously anything but news, I no longer wonder what MBAs not working in the financial sector are doing.
That could be entirely correct on your part. However, I know that in addition to being writers, the authors want to make money, so I will bet they try to have these things scoped out in advance. I guess Levin’s book they couldn’t help, since it was on the best seller list from day one, but I’ll wager if not the excuse is “our readers/listeners didn’t ask for it”
I always try to ask for it if it isn’t there, but that doesn’t always work.
