Yes, if you pay a service called "Bookscan," which all the publishers and almost all agents have. It has cut all the BS out of selling manuscripts to publishers---if you say, "My last book sold 'x'," they whip it up on Bookscan and immediately say, "No, it sold 'y.'" I'm told this is expensive, though.

With all their vast resources, not to mention their commitment (ahem) to the truth, why hasn't the drive-by media signed up for this service so when they talk about book sales they can publish accurate numbers?

How can they continue to publish these bogus book sales numbers when there is an easy way to verify the true facts?
