Big Publishing Pushes Out Trump’s Last Fan

 

If you were a certain kind of distinctly Trumpy public figure — say Donald Trump Jr. or Corey Lewandowski — looking to sell a book over the last four years, there were surprisingly few options. The Big Five publishing companies in New York, and even their dedicated conservative imprints, had become squeamish about the genre known as MAGA books, with its divisive politics and relaxed approach to facts. And small conservative publishers probably couldn’t afford you. [...]

But Hachette, like The New York Times and other media companies, has been torn in recent years between the politics of its staff and its historic commitment to publishing conservative speech. Its liberal proprietors, of course, always abhorred the conservative content while cashing the checks. At Hachette, this meant employees having their salaries paid by Donald Trump Jr. while objecting to publishing liberals who had fallen out of favor, like Woody Allen or J.K. Rowling. Ben Smith, The New York Times.

Beh, leggetevi tutto l'articolo per capire meglio quel che sta succedendo in ambito culturale in America. MAGA è l'acronimo per Make America Great Again.

Metto la foto di Woody Allen, perché è uno degli autori rifiutati da Hachette.
