Nobody could be that cluesless.
Or could they?

The comments are amusing.

Tells us where the NYT stands these days, huh?
(Those *are* the same guys who think Jennifer Lawrence is too fat to play an athletic backwoods huntress.)

They did feature dissenting opinions, though:

But even that is more than a bit condescending.

I read what I want including comics but I do notice that the New York Times Best Seller list usually doesn't show up on my "finished" list. I actually look at them occasionally on the stand in the grocery store just to check if I am missing anything.
I even notice that the sci-fi they push isn't good.
I can't even remember the sci-fi one they were pushing. The authors name was "koon" or something like that.
