Paper/bookseller partnerships growing like bacterial infection in kneecaps of responsible journalism

Remember a couple days back when we pointed out that (Moby pointed out that) the WaPo had started sending readers to Amazon, creating a defacto corporate partnership in a time of concern about how bookselling is killing publishing? The infection is spreading. I wandered by The Telegraph today and found them flogging books for Tesco. Is this new or something I’ve just noted because of the other story? It feels kind of skeezy to meezy. Especially given the mounting evidence that stores like Tesco are TRYING TO KILL US ALL in their quest for market dominance. I won’t be linking to anymore Telegraph articles, thanks very much. So if you enjoy their coverage, you’ll have to check it yourself. I’d call on others to do the same, and for buyers who care about the book industry to boycott the Tesco stores. But I suppose if you actually care, you probably already don’t shop there. Sigh.

    Chances, my cat, had a bacterial infection under her knee cap too. She had to go on bed rest. We applied ice packs every few hours and elevated her knees above her heart. Poor pussy!
