When they fold, I expect Jon Meacham to be so jubilant that he will wear a lampshade hat and jubilantly toast the failure with expensive champagne.
PING!
another idiot liberal
“I wonder if Jon Meacham will invite your humble correspondent the the Newsweek block party when they celebrate their circulation plunging in half. Of course, the party next year will be even bigger if Newsweek finds out that their circulation declined by much more than that.”
If they do, you may be asked to bring the dip and chips ...
Because chopping off 1/2 your #$#@ is better than chopping off the entire thing? But I guess that’s something better asked of Jon “Stubby” Meacham...
Easy!!They are losing money on every issue so if you half the circulation they will lose just half as much.
Well, the circulation is being cut in half... so, I'd expect half the staff to "understand it", and the other half of the staff to "not understand it".
There’s a pony in there somewhere.
Of course he’ll be happy. He & his cohorts can just cash out whatever’s left and retire very very comfortably. So long as it’s still going they have to maintain investments and keep running money back into the collapsing system.

Think they’ll get the hint that their Left Wing Agenda isn’t going over big?
Just tell them that cutting circulation in half is like chopping our income in half to support a bloated federal government, or chopping our freedoms in half to give Obama absolute power. They support the two cuts I mentioned, so that should make them see that losing readers is a good thing for a magazine. As their Furher says, "When you spread the readership around, everyone benefits."
Bring on the stimulus checks!
Everytime someone buys a new cellphone with internet access, or a laptop computer with wifi its another nail in the coffin of all non-eletronic media.
My mom is over 70 she reads all her news online now. I never tried to talk her into it she just up and told me one day all the newspapers she used to read cost too much and she realized everything she read in them, she'd read on the net at least 24 hours prior.
Cut the circulation in half and celebrate, and then cut it in half again. It works for me. I’d like to see all of the pop media follow the same plan.
Isn't this already part of the attire of moonbat journalists? It's the ranks who wear the foil, the elites who wear the lampshades...or something like that.
Maybe he’s optimistic about getting a bailout.
And now for the Jon Meacham money quote punchline:
Meacham sees only a perception problem. “In making arguments,” he says, “we have to make sure people don’t believe we’re partisan.”

Thanks for a Monday morning rollicking laugh!!!!!
I saw him on a Sunday show yesterday, and all I could think of was the famous word of Rosie O’Donnell: Deloooooosional!
A question for Jon Meacham:
What newstands currently carry this magazine? I have not seen it in supermarkets for years, where people apparently prefer to get their ‘news’ from People, US, the Enquirer, ‘O’ and Cosmo.
I guess people who were just laid off are lucky because they dont have to commute anymore per newsweaks logic
What will all those doctor and dentist offices do without Newsweak in their waiting rooms?
