Newsweek has become such a rag. Under Google they list headlines from various news outlets and

magazines, and invariably something from fox or newsweek shows up.

This morning from Newsweek I saw this crap:

“ Trump's Headed for a Major Victory on Election Night”

It refers to the insurrectionists endorsement

About a year. ago when Newsweek published an article from John Eastman spewing the “legitimacy” of overturning the election, there was no ambiguity what Newsweek had become


Now they are pushing this shit, when most polls rate the Senate as a tossup.

1. Plenty of analysis about the likely outcome of the election in the media; are they all RW outlets?

[JohnSJ]

2. I am referring to Newsweek specifically since they reorganized from bankruptcy. Their bias, from

outrageous John Eastman piece onward has reflected that.

Their headline says one thing, and the body of the article says it is a tossup for the Senate seats

Intentionally misleading headline

3. Election is more than just Senate.

Maybe Trump people are gonna win in deep, red state races, or a race with no Democratic opponent. Like Gosar for example. I can’t believe nobody ran against him. He’s the worst of the worst. He’s the one that his family can’t stand.

6. They are referring to the Senate in this

"Former President Donald Trump's Senate endorsement record is headed for a stellar election night with 10 days until the midterms."
.......

"Of the 22 Republican candidates that Trump has endorsed for the Senate, only two are currently at risk of losing their races, according to a Newsweek analysis."

The election for the Senate is over as far as the Newsweek analysis is concerned

They have been doing this for a while:

and for those who don't remember, Eastman suggested how to overturn the legitimate election, "legally"

4. I don't click on Newsweek for last 2 years

5. This is really how FOX News spreads its lies, not by its own channels, but parroted from others.

[JohnSJ]

7. I know. Using Google or Yahoo as their mechanism for propagation

[TheBlackAdder]

10. And that fucked up equal weight premise, where both sides are given shared coverage.

11. Excellent point

8. It's Zombie Newsweek

The real Newsweek, a respectable publication, died years ago.

Some shady company purchased its name rights and resurrected it as a two-bit rag.

[JohnSJ]

9. I know. Many years ago I was a subscriber

[Ocelot II]

12. Newsweek used to be a respectable publication.

Not so much any more.

[JohnSJ]

13. Yes it was. Johnathan Alter, and other past contributors have expressed dismay what it has
