A solution for the dying dead-tree political magazines.

Who would have thought, eh? Write for the people, instead of to the people.

Amusing comments, particularly from the long-time Newsweek subscriber who's threatening not to renew because his magazine has gone off-script.

Must be part of our intellectual superiors disgusted by those stupid ordinary people, much like the bitter column by Diane Francis in Saturday's National Post.

Actually I was thinking of buying a copy for posterity, or is it posterior, never can get them straight.

I did subscribe at one point about 15 years ago, but cancelled after I realized their lack of objectivity.

Francis should have long ago excused herself from writing anything that related to Obama, as she seems to have lost all sense of objectivity; she could benefit from a little fact checking herself, she couldn't even get the name of the movie "Gran Torino" correctly, let alone the story.

I am seriously beginning to believe she suffers from leg tingles.

I was hoping to buy a copy of that magazine, but as of last week, no local vender had it, not even Indigo or Worlds Biggest Bookstore.

Hahhahahhahaha. Francis is Po'd because she is not in the inner circle to fellate the Zero.More proof that the best part of her ran down her mother's leg.

After so many years of Newsweak playing for the other team, and although I think their cover is amusing and perhaps refreshing, I hope for their demise.

and that their investors lose their shirts.

If Newsweek expects to survive, it will have to adopt this honest attitude permanently. Otherwise that magazine is toast.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
