Not hard at all. Scientology used to do it with L. Ron Hubbard books all the time. It only takes about 5,000 copies.

Amazon has Tapper's book for $27. 5K copies would be $135,000.
I could personally do that and wouldn't even max out my credit. CNN wouldn't blink about it.
For the comparative cost of a normal person going out to lunch.
