Don’t see what the big fuss is about. Bachmann has that wild eye look on her face all the time.

I remember there used to be a magazine called Newsweek.

I had half a mind to have the title of this as:

Newsweek no longer matters.

What is really funny is that Newsweak keeps doing these stupid covers...Palin, Lady Di at 50, now Bachmann...to get press and attention.

Yet the journalism and readership and circulation still suck, and it’ll be tossed into the dustbin of history.

Just like Hussein’s presidency.

Rolling Stone trotted out its hit piece several weeks ago.

Nedwsweak became tabloid trash a long, long time ago. It ceased being relevant sometime during Reagan’s first term.

What value is a News Magazine in an internet world? They were cutting edge during Ben Franklin’s day.

Don’t care for sNoozeweek’s sleaze, but Bachmann has been quite an embarrassment lately. She just isn’t bright, or classy.

I didn’t know that anyone still read Newsweak.

The MSM is scared of Bachmann. They pulled this crap on Palin too. Right now Palin isn’t officially in the race and Bachmann is surging so they need to knock her off for the establishment.

Tell them their cover prompted you to contribute to her campaign. That out to give them heartburn for sure.

Isn’t Newsweek the only outlet that shut down its electronic version and only keeps its printed edition?

Bachmann is right not to stoop to NWeek’s level to engage them. Why make them relevant? As far as the King of Rage, wouldn't that be Howard Dean?

That Newsweek magazine published an unflattering cover photo of conservative Republican presidential aspirant Michele Bachmann and dubbed her 'The Queen of Rage' is hardly shocking. That rag has always hated conservatives. What is newsworthy is that NOW actually criticized Newsweek for the photo and the ridiculous label they tried to pin on Michele Bachmann. To her credit, Terry O'Neill, Presidet of the National Organization for Women, made it crystal clear that she strongly opposed Michele Bachmann on every issue but she also castigated Newsweek for it's blatant sexism in portraying Bachmann as a 'nut'. Surprising - but welcome. Perhaps NOW is attempting to redeem itself and convince women that it has some possible relation to their lives or else, they know Newsweek is circling the drain and figured it's a 'soft target' for feminist criticism. Either way, it's about time.

Newsweek is like CNN. It’s only available at airports.
