Based on my time working in movie theaters, and plenty of other articles I have read, I would say this seems true, but I was wondering if that holds true for books as well? Do books with strong conservative values sell better then those that do not have them?

Not that that would ever impact how I write... just curious.
Um, what?

MovieguideŽ’s annual study of the political content in movies shows that movies with Pro-American, patriotic, capitalist, anti-socialist, anti-communist content and values and ethics reflecting traditional biblical morality make much more money per movie than movies with Anti-American, anti-patriotic, welfare statist, Marxist, secular, atheist, and/or very strong perverse content or values reflecting a radical, anti-human view.
Knowing a number of of conservatives and liberals myself, I question this study's definitions.
