Is this for real?

I would start laughing if someone could confirm to me that it was.

Save the magazine by going print-only? Errr... Good luck with that.

I wonder how Newsweek would be doing if it hadn't spiked the Lewinsky story.

It’s hardly a magazine anymore.

...more like a pamphlet or tract.

Liberal, of course.

A dollar just doesn’t buy what it used to.

Yeah, that whole Internet thing is just a fad. Print news magazines is where the real growth is.

Both are being subsidized due to not generating enough online ad revenue. Makes sense to minimize the costs for the two sites.

which is mostly doctor's/dentist's office lobby waiting areas. And even then where it's essentially free.... nobody reads it.

LOL: you read my mind.

I wouldn't touch it for two reasons:

1.) It's full of liberal crap.
2.) Yeah, I'm going to pick up a magazine that's been fingered by a thousand diseased individuals.

On the upside, it will still be stinking up newstands. As for the online part, RIP, you liberal rag.

See what happens when you embrace the dark side. A new world is coming and its now a worker’s utopia of the left.

But that’s what we should encourage the Left to do! I might have to send them a thank you email saying just how smart that move is to gain more readership!

Encouraging the Left to self-destruct could be the next big sport from the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy!

Excellent bra choice, Governor!

Are they insane? They are luddites or something.

Sounds like self-inflicted suicide.

They would be better off saying they will only be available on Kindles and Nooks.
