Dear WSN,
Thanks for sharing your reactions, favorable and unfavorable, to the
proposal that we link JWSR to Amazon.com in exchange for a percentage of
resulting book sales. We decided against the idea, for two reasons:
First, we don't want to compromise -- or appear to compromise -- our
editorial integrity by profiting from the sale of books we review.
Second, the support of those JWSR readers (and WSN subscribers) who oppose
such a commercial relationship is more important to us than the income we
would receive from Amazon.com.
Susan Manning
Assistant Editor, JWSR
