This is really blowing right back at the media.

They just don't get that people like Gov. Palin.

The blinders are starting to fall off on the Media's love affair with a defeatist, no nothing, one man gaffe machine. And they won't be able to run interference for him much longer.

And Newsbusters is going to need another server to keep up with all teh fun.

For those of you didn't see the interview with the jerk who is editor for US WEEKLY, you gotta see this:

What would happen if a lot of folks called supermarkets and letting them know that if that "Us" edition is in the checkout lane, they will leave their cart full of groceries in the check out lane and walk out of the store? 

On Wednesday McClaskey (?), owners of he Raleigh N&O and the Charlotte Obeserve, announced more lay offs at their papers. Why can't they see the problem? I don't take either one but I read them online. Since I don't live there I don't patronize their sponsors.

The people subscribed to US are voting with their money. It has yet to be seen if this works. It is not working at MSNBC. It has not worked against McClaskey because they are yet to see people are not going to buy their biased rag.

If pro is the opposite of con what is the opposite of progress? Congress!

There's a reason that celebrity endorsers like Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan don't publicly mix in politics.  They understand that half of their audience are likely members of the other party.  So to avoid angering that customer base, they keep their political affiliations to themselves.  [I believe MJ is a Democrat and it's rumored that TW is a Republican.  Regardless, both stay out of the arena]

I used to love the Rolling Stone but I got tired of being told by that magazine that I was a racist, sexist, homophobic, religious zelot.  The NY Times, LA Times, Boston Globe, et al have experienced continued declines in readership and advertising for the same reason.  The reason US Weekly is so pronounced and sudden reflects the political times in which we live.  Conservatives are mad as hell and they're not going to take it any more.  So they vote with our dollars and, to paraphrase Bill Buckly, cancel their own g**damned subscriptions.

Ruth and I were driving home last night from going out to dinner and talking about Sarah Palin. As we drove past a subdivision, I said to her that if the women across the country who live in houses like those, who are married and work for a living and raise children understand who Sarah Palin is and who she represents, this may be a landslide election for McCain/Palin. At least some of them are voting with their checkbooks now. Let see if it translates into votes in November.

Last I saw, McCain was still behind in the polls, so he and her have quite a bit of catch-up ahead of them.

This is a publisher that's in real trouble. I used to subscribe to Premiere magazine. It was a monthly mag on the movies, typically upcoming ones, with reviews, release dates, cast interviews, etc.

Well, one day I walked out to my mailbox, expecting to see my copy of Premiere, and it was US. Premiere had gone under and I was being sent US as a replacement to fill out the remainder of my subscription.

Thank God my subscription was nearly over. I only got two copies of US. Two more than I ever wanted to see.

I know one woman who is loving the Us Weekly stuff and egging the media on to keep right on rollen with this stuff: Hillary Clinton.

She must be tickled pink the media --- the same one whose pro-Obama bias knocked her out of a sure thing ---- is now thrusting so many swing voters over to the Republican ticket.

They say mid-term elections are often the "throw the bums out" ones. And they said that the Dems are looking really good in the Congressional elections this time.

If the media keeps it up like this --- I won't bet money on that right now....

I have a feeling voters are getting pissed enough at the media to take it out on the liberals and Dems come voting time.

And after this Palin stuff --- I bet Hillary has her date book out planning for how the 2012 election cycle can be managed....

I am constantly amazed at how incompetent many so called "journalists" really are. In other businesses these people would be on the street. The MSM is becoming a safe haven for those that cannot survive in the real world.

HOT AIR has been looking like a Sarah Palin Picture catalog since last Friday.   If the MSM will NOT guest her on TV (like Obama) then Americans will head to the BLOGS to get information on Palin.

Exit MSM, enter New Media.

If Sarah becomes the Rock Star that the MSM wants for Obama, Then the MSM is going to be forced to cover Palin, or the MSM will force Americans to the Internet for NEWS.

Google/yahoo must also Toe the line on Coverage . . . .as Obama would say..... "It is written"

The Republican Revolution will not be Televised

!!!!CANCELED!!!!!!

So sorry about your arrogance and propaganda!

That's not counting those who are waiting to get the issue to read the story. After that, many more will be pissed off. It also doesn't take into account those who will just let the subscription run out and not renew. By the way...in 2007 US Weekly was listed as having 1.9 million subscribers, here

The owner/publisher of US (also Rolling Stone) completely misjudged the public, his power and the ability to promote rumors instead of actual facts. How many covers has Obama been on in Rolling Stone since he became  Senator and lmost instantly started campaigning for President? None were critical.

The day that "politician" became a career choice is the day we started losing the Republic. Let's get it back! Alan Keyes '08.

As I stood in line at the grocery store yesterday, I saw this cover.  I also noticed People magazine and OK magazine with similar covers.  I am glad to see that people are voting with their wallets.

Of course, these magazines typically appeal to people who get all of their news from tabloids and don't vote anyway.

I think the main stream magazine world (Who owns Us by the way) props up their hatred of the right and allows their so called tabloids to say anything and think they can get away with it. Doing their bidding so to speak.

At this stage, if we are truly determined to get fair and balanced reporting we need a list of these magazines and who the actual parents are. THEN we can start a cancellation effort. And go to those advertisers and start complaining in earnest.

Hey Left!! Enough is enough.

I wish I had a subscription so I could cancel it.
I am reminded of the fellow who had an employee he could not stand. He gave the employee a raise, then fired him the next week. when the employee asked, he said that he wanted him to lose a better job.

With Rasmussen showing Palin is now the most popular of any of the nominees in either party, I'm sure the marketing chiefs of those sponsors would welcome a heads up as to what they are supporting when they buy space on US.
