I don't see this as Conservative authors "supporting" liberal book companies. I see this as another brick getting knocked out of the wall.
As the big publishers see the improvement in the bottom line these authors' book sales make, another brick will get knocked out. The time may come when the wall they have built to keep Conservatives out will crumble.
I have often looked at the Best Seller lists and wondered how the publishers could justify their left-wing politics vs. profit to their stockholders.
The flip side of this is that, until now, there weren't enough Conservative titles, so each one rockets to the top of the list. When there are more titles, there may be a wider distribution of Conservative books, but not as many at the top.
