Anyone who believes the News-weak response is a brain-dead zombie (or maybe thats to generous).

Nothing is printed/published by them that hasn’t been vetted (as they would normally call it) and approved for print. Nothing. There is no way to play the “plausible deniability” card. It doesn’t exist in this case.

They truly believed Hillary’s machine had the “fix” in.

They pulled this when Trump won, and instead of doing one on Trump - which would have been honest, they just printed February’s ‘special edition’ on “the Science of Relationships”

WRONG. I have a copy of the special commemorative edition with Trump’s photo on the cover on my desk right now.

Just bought 2 on ebay. Couldn’t resist after reading the part about how America resoundingly rejected the evil mysogenistic bad awful Trump.

Cooper noted that the "writing in this is, shall we say, was not up to the editorial standards of Newsweek."

That's not a real high bar, but this definitely stinks as writing all right, it's mendacious trash. They can't stop lying even in the middle of a triumph the country may thank God they never enjoyed.

I really wish I had a copy. Funny as all get out.

I have a copy of both, the one with Trump on the cover and the one with Clinton on the cover. Got Trump in a store and Clinton on e-bay.

That interview with Cooper was awesome. He looked like a fool.

I have not seen it. I looked. Here there was a special edition and it was “Science of Relationships” NOT Trump.

They can still sell it for target practice at the range.

Eh. It's not fit to line a birdcage.

a handful of Trump's most deplorable supporters, seeing the wide margins Clinton held among female voters, called to repeal the 19th amendment.

Even the Onion wouldn't write this brand of odious and odoriferous tripe; it's too unbelievable for satirical fiction and too hate-filled and sexist to be "beyond edgy".

That's February's. The election is December's. They printed both Trump and Clinton victory issues.

Special issues stay on shelves for a while and there can be more than one out at the same time. They actually sell some of them, which is more than you can say for the regular issues of the magazine.

OK. So, who did write the piece.

Some hack in the bowels of the Clinton Campaign?

An academic?

I don’t know, but I write better than that excerpt!

‘Then how did it get written and printed??

This isn’t making sense.’

What doesn’t make sense is their claim not to have read it. That’s like setting a big box of porn in front of a sex addict, and telling him it’s his job to review it.

Later he claims he didn’t. Implausible.

The Leftists could not WAIT to revel in Trump’s (anticipated) defeat. The idea that the Leftists at Newsweek could have resisted that issue is ludicrous.

“The culminating election of a career in politics spanning 3 decades...”

“3”? That should be written as “three”!

Either a complete amateur wrote this or merely a typical, modern, leftist graduate from any of the so-called top journalism schools in the land.

It was probably the latter.

Ah, they will probably get a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction award out of it.
