Simon and Schuster CEO Jonathan Karp says he will continue with plans to publish a book by former Vice President Mike Pence despite an attempt by some employees to cancel it.

Karp was responding to an online petition of employees and petitions on social media demanding that Simon and Schuster refuse to publish a sure-fire bestseller. The woke Democratic partisans didn’t mince any words in their denunciations of Pence.

An online petition accused the company of “complicity in perpetuating white supremacy by publishing Mike Pence. The former vice president was accused of promoting policies that were “racist, sexist and discriminatory toward LGBTQ+ people.”

“This is not a difference of opinions; this is legitimizing bigotry,” the petition said.

“Simon and Schuster”

Same scumbags I gave Biden’s son a seven figure book deal. The world’s better off without that publisher.

I don’t see a sure fire best seller.

Democrats won’t buy it, neither will Trump voters, so Yeb! and company?

CEO Jonathan Karp should consider firing every single one of those people. If they don’t like Pence and want him cancelled just because he was Trump’s VP then they are mentally deranged and shouldn’t be working at a publisher or anyplace else of any influence on society. See my tagline.

I was rather wondering why they hadn’t been fired yet.

So you, could, care less, but choose not to. So you care about it. To each his own.

For me, I couldn't care less. It means nothing to me.

The didn’t have far to fall.

The parent company of ViacomCBS owned S&S before the sale.

I don’t know anything about the Pense book but I am certain it will be very favorable toward Trump.

For anyone wondering why Bertelsmann might ring a bell, here's one reason. From 2008...
