What is “Newsweek”?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Of the three US news weeklies, Newsweek is the sickliest in terms of lost circulation. Newsweek won’t last another 36 months unless some total fool like Soros buys it.

Notice that the Duke thing is out of the news. That’s so that the mind-numbed public will forget, and the criminal prosecutor can get away with a horrible crime.

I wonder if the toads at Newsweek are having Tawana Brawley burgers for lunch. Those are the burgers that you take home and put your own sh!* on em.

Evan Thomas — a poof whose appearances on television always arouses my dormant violent instincts.....

It enrages me that folks allow this asshole’s opinion to be voiced without rolling their eyes and laughing out loud at his trite insanity....

one-liner by Newsweek's Evan Thomas about his magazine's dubious reporting on the Duke non-rape case— "The narrative was right but the facts were wrong"

That is the best summary of the State of the MSM I've ever read!

[JimSEA]

I recently bought a copy of “Newsweek” to pass the time while waiting for my wife. What a mistake! It had been about three years since I had read this lefty publication. I stopped reading it because it was so predictable and biased. It is much worse now, having escalated its rhetoric to nothing more than a sharp left polemic.

Newsweek has mostly ignored the REAL rape and racial hate outrage in the South..

The murder and rape of the white couple in Tennessee by a gang of blacks is being ———shall we say, being BLACKWASHED?

Where is the outrage over a REAL crime?

Or — has the left decided to show their racial bigotry by under reporting crimes by blacks as being “expected behavior”?

[Lancey Howard]

If anyone ever starts a museum of horrible explanations, the one-liner by Newsweek's Evan Thomas about his magazine's dubious reporting on the Duke non-rape case— "The narrative was right but the facts were wrong" —is destined to become a popular exhibit, right up there with "we had to destroy the village to save it."

"The memo was fake but accurate."

[Little Pig]

So, “Fake, But Accurate” raises its ugly head once again. Why don’t they (MSM) just come out and admit that they are trying to manipulate thought patterns, rather than report actual news events? They might as well, at this point, since they’ve all but admitted it with the recurring FBA scandals.

An all time classic:

“I lied to my diary”

[MortMan]

...humiliating an Iraqi woman whose face had been "melted" by an IED

I was under the impression that the mocked woman was a US Soldier. Did I misremember my Newsweek fabrications?

[MIT-Elephant]

“we had to destroy the village to save it.”

In all likelihood, a U.S. servicemember never said this about Hue, Vietnam - it was made up by (drumroll) Peter Arnett.

Shame on Stephen Ambrose for quoting it as fact in one of his books.
