CNN Picks Up on Bachmann's Newsweek Cover Photo, Questions Media's Tre
Newsweek's embarrassing cover photo of Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) garnered attention not only from conservative blogs, but also from the major networks and cable news. CNN ran Bachmann's wide-eyed picture on the latest Newsweek cover multiple times Tuesday morning, asking if the picture and harsh headline were examples of media maltreatment of conservative women presidential candidates…
Mediaite's Christopher Calls 'Bulls**t' on Newsweek Over Bachmann 'Out
Probably in response to a firestorm of criticism over their cover photo of Rep. Michele Bachmann, Newsweek today released a slideshow of "outtakes" that they say show that, in essence, the Minnesota Republican is unphotogenic and didn't give them much to work with in terms of a flattering photo.
For his part, left-leaning Mediaite.com reporter Tommy Christopher isn't buying it, calling "bulls…
Flashback: Newsweek’s Adulatory 2008 Obama Cover Portraits
With outrage from right to left over Newsweek’s “Queen of Rage” cover story photo of Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann in which she looks crazy, or at least empty-headed, a look back at how during the last campaign the magazine, under previous ownership, made sure candidate Barack Obama always looked presidential.
If You Thought Newsweek's Cover Photo of Bachmann Was Bad Wait Until Y
When even the ultra-liberal National Organization for Women is attacking Newsweek's cover photo of Michele Bachmann as sexist it's clear that magazine has sunk to a new low, but the Lois Romano companion story may be even more insulting than the "Queen of Rage" photo itself. The article for the August 15 issue entitled, "Tea Party Queen, Why Michele Bachmann Is Riding High Going Into Iowa"…
Newsweek's Tomasky: Obama's Screwed Because He Naively Believes in 'Ci
To Michael Tomasky, Barack Obama's problem is not lack of leadership or a rigid fixation to liberal ideology.
No, it's just that the president is too darn decent a guy, a veritable Mr. Smith who's gone to Washington, but perhaps in this case without the Capraesque happy ending:
Newsweek Puts Picture of Michele Bachmann on Cover That Makes Her Look
The August 15 issue of Newsweek has a cover story about Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.).
If Gawker is right, she's not going to like the picture the magazine used:
Eleanor Clift: Fannie and Freddie Didn't Cause Mortgage Collapse - It
It is truly fascinating how liberal media members will do anything to protect the reputation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
On this weekend's "McLaughlin Group," Newsweek's Eleanor Clift revised history to largely absolve the two government-sponsored enterprises for last decade's mortgage collapse while predictably blaming it on Wall Street and of course George W. Bush (video follows with…
Chuck Todd: Limbaugh Couldn't Win GOP Nomination - Doubtful Palin Coul
David Gregory decided to have a very fair and balanced roundtable discussion at the conclusion of Sunday's "Meet the Press" exclusively with the perilously liberal Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson and the equally left-leaning Chuck Todd of NBC News.
With the subject being Newsweek's new cover story about former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, Todd mysteriously made the case for how slim…
Sarah Palin on Cover of Newsweek: 'I Can Win
The upcoming issue of Newsweek has a cover story about former Alaska governor Sarah Palin.
Here's the picture with the headline, "'I Can Win": Sarah Palin on why she's so confident - and how she'll decide whether to run in 2012":
Newsweek-Daily Beast Scare Story: 'White Supremacist Stampede' for Pub
James Taranto at The Wall Street Journal just demolished a scare piece by Newsweek reporter Eve Conant (posted on July 4) with the overwrought headline "White Supremacist Stampede: A startling number of white-power candidates are seeking public office."
If we're being warned of dangerous new wave of white racist extremists, it naturally is another product of the leftist Southern Poverty Law…
Pat Buchanan and John McLaughlin Finally Silence Eleanor Clift: 'Hold
There was a truly delicious moment on this weekend's "McLaughlin Group" that's guaranteed to please conservatives from coast to coast.
During a heated discussion about President Obama's call to end tax breaks for corporate jet purchases, Pat Buchanan and John McLaughlin literally silenced Newsweek's Eleanor Clift much to her dismay (video follows with transcript and commentary):
Time, Newsweek Defensively Backed Out of Weinergate and Scorned Our 'P
Since we disposed with the notion that the networks had a feeding frenzy on the Anthony Weiner scandal, what about the news magazines? They began with a whimper, but then that week’s magazines were summer double issues. After the week off, what happened in their June 27 issues? Not much.
Newsweek didn’t offer a down arrow in their “Conventional Wisdom” column, but they gave an up arrow to “…
Krauthammer Corrects Newsweek's Thomas on Budget: 'Republicans Have St
Newsweek's Evan Thomas on Friday tried to float the typical media meme that neither Party is doing anything to solve our nation's budget crisis.
Unfortunately for him, fellow "Inside Washington" panelist Charles Krauthammer accurately noted that the Republicans have offered a proposal to cut $6.6 trillion in the next ten years, "but the Democrats have done nothing except to demagogue the plan…
Time, Newsweek Offered Cover Stories, 15 Pages to Mark Foley in
Brent Bozell reminded readers of his column that the networks piled on 152 stories about Rep. Mark Foley in the story's first 12 days in the fall of 2006, but they weren’t the only ones with a vast left-wing disparity. Time and Newsweek each devoted cover stories and multiple pages to the Foley scandal. Time put an elephant’s rear end on the cover with the words “What a Mess...Why a tawdry…
