No longer content with domination of AM radio, conservative pundits are releasing books in droves. Here’s a rundown of the latest unapologetically opinionated publications from the right:

  • Talk radio personality and former clerk to Clarence Thomas (who has his own new release) Laura Ingraham hit the New York Times bestseller list with Power to the People (Regnery, $27.95), her third book. Take that, liberal elite media! Among other things, Ingraham analyzes the vapid tabloid culture of 21st century America.
  • Ingraham’s leggier doppelgänger, Ann Coulter, also has a new one; in If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d Be Republicans (Crown Forum, $24.95), Coulter doles out more of her trademark outspoken commentary on Hillary, illegal aliens, and global warming. She’s been hovering around Amazon.com’s top 10 since the book’s Oct. 2 release.
  • And it’s a big month for the granddaddy of them all: Bill O’Reilly will release Kids Are Americans Too (William Morrow, $24.95) on Oct. 16, and his seminal Culture Warrior will come out in paperback on the 9th.
