Interesting that they don't mention amazon bestseller lists. I believe the amazon lists are purely mathematical. (Why do I believe this? Because I haven't heard any author complaining about it. Whereas everything in the post about NYT is common knowledge. )

It's interesting the the article thus shows the same kind of selection bias that they were complaining about.
