Rick Sanchez’s massively promoted book sells, er, hundreds of copies

Rick Sanchez has been on the air promoting Conventional Idiocy a lot recently – 36 times in the last three weeks.

So how did the book sell? According to numbers Mediaite obtained from Bookscan, Sanchez’ book sold 802 copies in its first week…

Sanchez has talked about his book dozens of times during his three hours each day on CNN, but he has also shown up on American Morning to talk about it and the Situation Room. Every day last week, Ali Velshi had Sanchez on to talk about the book as well (and there was the Larry King exchange last month).
