Cruz Book Makes NYT Best Seller List After 'Partisan Bias' Feud

Despite outselling all but two books last week, Ted Cruz's memoir A Time For Truth somehow failed to make the New York Times best seller list, the paper of record alleging that "strategic bulk purchases" were the only reason its sales were so high.

"As of yesterday, 'A Time for Truth' was the number 13 bestselling book, and there is no evidence of unusual bulk purchase activity in our sales data," Sarah Gelman, Amazon's director of press relations, said in an email.
