Amazon is Correct

I still maintain that Colbert is taking advantage of the negotiations to get his book out front and center--he's turning it into an opportunity and will probably sell more books because of it.
I agree. He is out to get all of the money he can out of the publicity surrounding this. For that to happen he has to support Hachette getting as much money as they can.

I do not usually support Amazon but in this case they are correct. Buy a product wholesale and sell it retail. The seller gets to choose what price to sell it at whether they they are the wholesaler or retailer. But the wholesaler has no right to influence the price the retailer charges.
