Amazon removes negative reviews of Megyn Kelly's memoir

It appears Amazon has decided to remove some negative reviews of Megyn Kelly's new autobiography, "Settle for More," after groups of pro-Donald Trump internet "trolls" decided to leave one-star reviews en masse.

A report from Slate Tuesday showed that more than 75 percent of the book's reviews were one star, but by Wednesday morning, USA Today noted that that number had been reduced to 17 percent.

Hey Amazon your credibility with your reviews just went out the window.

Those actually help Coulter sell more books.

Interesting. Wasn’t aware of the Amazon club you mentioned. But then I rarely visit Amazon. Only time I have to read for pleasure is when we are going out of town for a few days. Read a lot - but it’s stuff related to insurance, new tax rules, etc. We’re going to be gone for three weeks beginning mid-December so will hit The Half Price Book Store sometime this week. Always get one of my clients a history book about past presidents and so rely on Amazon reviews before I make a final selection.

My son has a Kindle and has two or three things going all the time. For Christmas one of his gifts is an Amazon gift card which doesn’t take him long to use up.

I can’t imagine Kelly writing anything I would EVER want to read although I did look at the comments before they were edited.

Merry Christmas.

That would make an ideal book to hollow out for holding “valuable items” (or a secret stash). Just leave it out in plain sight (coffee-table, desk, shelf) — no one will ever try to open it.
