Thumbs up Whose book recommendation would you most trust?

Good morning…


…here’s a survey of interest; especially so when you consider how much power Oprah used to wield in the media.


Newsvine - Whose book recommendation would you most trust?


It seems that folks are seeing through the liberal/progressive thinking/acting Oprah, by how they’ve voted in this poll.


It’s reassuring to see Americans awakening from their sedated sheeple slumber…


…and begin to stir, embrace and act upon truth that media personalities like Glenn Beck have been bringing to our attention.


Hope you enjoy a good day today…


…while you’re working to accomplish tasks on your to do list.

Back up link if the above one isn't functioning...

I trust book recommendations from my friends a sight more than I'd trust a book recommendation from some media celeb. My friends at least have an understanding of the sort of thing I read, and they will understand it when I hand them a recommendation for something like a US Army technical manual on survival or improvised munitions, or a sceince fiction novel that makes you think about things.

Actually,

I have a very small number of history buffs whose recommendations I follow. We share similar interests.

I would not take any advice from Oprah or the rest of the liberal pack.

I read what suits me at the time. I've never seen an Oprah episode so can't say one way or the other but am sure I'm not in to her kind of literature.
