TMZ is actually a legit source of news though. The value of said news is entirely dependent on people giving a shit on that particular celebrity though.

In a statement, Yiannopoulos claimed that his higher figure was not a count of retail sales, but included copies sent to wholesale sellers.

He said: ‘By now, you may have heard reports claiming we only sold 18,000 copies of Dangerous and that our 100,000 copies claim is exaggerated. I’m happy to report that this is fake news.

‘It’s true that the major booksellers only managed to ship out 18,000 copies to retail customers by the list cutoff. But that’s because they didn’t order enough ahead of time, and have been scrambling to play catchup ever since.

‘The real news is that we’ve received wholesale orders and direct orders of such magnitude that our entire stock of 105,000 books is already accounted for.’


Is this the "tantrum" they're talking about?

This is about as mild as doom_art's bar for a "meltdown"

Poor guy. Just falling and falling.

Far left hate him for being conservative.
Left hate him for just outright being a jerk.
Moderates kinda like him.
Right kinda like him.
Far right hate him because he's gay.

And the whole blanket hates him for supporting pedophilia.

Oh yes Milo. I am sure everyone is flocking to buy your book and support you.

Excuse me, I bought his book but I wouldn't be counted in his sales because the book hasn't shipped to me yet

Also his book started selling on amazon over a month ago and is still #5

Doesn't this imply that his book is doing great?


Wholesalers do not count as sales since they can be returned if they aren't sold to retailers. So it's most likely an excuse.

I don't see anything that indicates retailers are struggling to keep up with demand.

He's not an idiot, he's a fucking genius. He made a career out of showing the worst of SJW's, and they pretty much do all the work and he gets all the publicity. It's genius.


I meam, not really, or you have a low bar for genius. He's smart to capitalize on a market, I guess, but the problem with being an offensive asshole who pushes the limits is eventually you either go to far or people tire of your shit and eventually get bored and move on

Wow, what a "flop". Especially considering the book has no real marketing, and almost no physical copies in any bookstore, none in Barnes & Noble XD

Turns out, all the pissing and moaning in the world from leftist blogs can't argue with the facts.

From what I heard, what he said may have been bad, but it was wildly distorted to making it sound like he was some huge pedophile apologist who promoted molesting children when his words weren't like that. And that instead of addressing the fact he was molested, they just attack him.


But I didn't actually bother to look into it any more than when this stuff crops up on Reddit or here, I just know it was supposedly exaggerated. Either way, not like I'm sad that he stopped having such a big spotlight.

His actual quote was that he felt that young gay guys learn a lot from consensual relationships with older gay men. His statement was related to how he himself was an underage kid in a relationship with an older man, but he wasn't advocating underage kids being in relationships with older people; he explicitly says that he think's the age of consent is right.

But of course, the left's only real tactic is slander and ridicule, so of course dullards like @mario2000 and @literal_garbage will distort what he says to the point where they claim he advocated raping children rather than engage him on an intellectual level, which is a battle they know they'll lose. It's exactly why Hillary's ads just said "Donald Trump is evil" and rarely explained what Hillary herself would do as president.
