Call me cynical, but....
I have my LiveJournal friendslist divided into different sub-groups because it's too unwieldy for me to read all at once.
Thus, published authors are in their own group, and I read them all en masse.
And I must say that it is really, really interesting to me that almost every single one of them, from mildly obscure to ridiculously famous, has posted in outcry about AmazonFail today - the first day links spread anywhere at all.
Whereas, some of them have yet to say one damn thing about RaceFail.
I know it's hard to keep up and everything, but if you have a platform and you use it to post outrage, selective outrage can be very telling of privilege.
