[LINK] jsburbidge on what actually is popular science fiction

[rfmcdonald]

Livejournaler jsburbidge does a great job in crunching book sales data to see if, as some claim, the Hugo Awards are neglecting popular science fiction. (It turns out that it isn't really, and that it may be more of a case of complainants not believing that some books could actually be popular. Yes, it's the usual right-wing and libertarian suspects.)
