Bill Clinton went to the local Ford dealer during the “cash for clunkers” for a trade in.

When he got to the dealership, they told him Hillary was not considered a clunker.

That magazine’s circulation dept. is the biggest joke. We let our subscription lapse 2-3 years ago, yet we still get it in the mail every month for free.

It’s astonishing to me that the publishers are blind to the real reason that RD has fallen on hard times.

Leftism. Pure and simple.

Just look at their choices of celebrites for the cover photo and feature articles. I let my subscription expire long ago but still have some copies lying around: Barbra Streisand. Peter Jennings. Katy Couric. Ted Danson. Tom Brokaw. And so on.

Relentlessly over the years, RD became a font of hero-worship for leftists. I tired of it and let my subscription expire. The thing is, this parallels the decline of so many other media organs, including the network news shows and even CNN. You’d think the success of the comparatively right-ish Fox News would have made the point loud and clear, but the MSM persists in its leftism-pushing groove. It’s positively Darwinian.
