| Hearsay: |
Somewhere around the duodenum, Amazon’s foot, which had apparently entered through its own mouth, met Macmillan’s foot which, as we saw yesterday, entered through Amazon’s rectum, and the two are having a kungfu battle amid the half-digested remains of America’s mid-list novelists. Heady stuff.
- Moby does a good job of rounding up the story so far
- Meanwhile, Galleycat interviews a digital playah
- Amazon’s stock price sinks, presumably suffering from the relatively new phenomenon called “The Douche-Effect”
- Agents largely on author/publishers’ side (except when they’re at parties with Amazon, in which case, reverse that…)
- Don’t anger the publishing sector, bitches… we’ll get our hands ready for a fuck of a slap fight
- What gave the skinny, bespectacled kid in the in the playground the cahones to stand up to that hulking bully Amazon in the first place? He cultivated his own hulk… Nothing picking a fight in the shadow of your backup plan
- Wired calls it a “beatdown” and a winner for “content”
