Fatwa... the New Marketing Tool

Brad Thor--who in my imaginings always refers to himself in the third person: "Brad Thor wanted his latte extra hot!"--has found a provocative way to promote his latest novel, The Last Patriot. In an interview with CNN's Glenn Beck (a transcript is here), he kinda sorta claims that a fatwa has been issued against him. Now, rightwing blogs are picking up the story.

But something tells me that Brad Thor isn't unduly worried: a full calendar of his upcoming appearances is still listed on his website.--David E
