The MSM is getting so surreal even Camus would be miffed.

[coconutt2000]

Cheney's popularity should increase after this.

It isn't everybody that can claim to have shot a lawyer.

[CheyennePress]

Cheney's Secred World?

If I had a Photoshop handy, I think I'd have to convert that bright red "Newsweek" into "The National Inquirer." You couldn't tell the difference.

Newsweek goes after Cheney Big Time

How is this any different from previous issues of Newsweak?

[MJY1288]

Evan Thomas's father was a Commie, and so is he

[Tzimisce]

...almost makes you wonder what big news is breaking out there right now while the MSM discusses this...

[rock58seg]

Un F'N believable. The idiocy of this tpe of article is laughable.

[DoughtyOne]

This appeared in MAD magazine right?

[Wiseghy]

Hey, look mom, no facts!

Just made up hearsay and outright, libelous slander and below the belt personal denegration more suited to high school gossip.

The MSM and Newsweak mark a new low.

[smoothsailing]

Evan Thomas? Let the little Marxist pig squeel. Hell, let all the leftist media pukes squeel.It will just drive more folks to the new media faster!

[BigSkyFreeper]

He is caricatured as a Darth Vader, spooky, above the law; nefarious.

....by the media.

[Zarro]

Newsweek is crap. I cancelled a (free) subscription years ago, and never missed it once.

[MJY1288]

WMD's could be uncovered in Iraq and all the MSM would be doing is gathering their political consultants to figure a way to blame George W. Bush for not finding them sooner.

IMHO the Democrats and their major supporters on the far left (Their Base) are not rooting for America, their only concern regaining power, and if by supporting our enemies in the hope that they will kill additional thousands of Americans to make Bush look bad, they are standing ready to facilitate the ambitions of our enemies if it means they will return to power.

SAD, VERY SAD

[CheyennePress]

Did you notice how they took special care to mention that the guesthouse was known as "Uncle Tom's Cabin?"

*rolls eyes*

[wickedpinto]

didn't bother reading the whole. I think I got Evan's intent with the head line.

Cheney, evil, will shoot you if you trie to expose it, and don't you dare open your mouth against him, even though only enemies of cheney have openly opposed him, and accused him of things that would make darth vader scream into the air "PADME!!!!!!" Only a republican can be this evil and Cheney is the definition of evil.

thats my headline summary.

or the other form is "I'm a complete lunatic and can't function without hating someone so I pick a good, decent and honest man like cheney, but I'm gonna insult him as much as possible because he can't really defend himself. I was the loser no ass having geek in highschool, so I will take all of my 50 year old virginal aggression out on a decent person who doesn't play the game of washington hyperbole, which is the only language I understand"

But I might be exaggerating.

but I'm not.

The Shot Heard Round the World (Newsweek goes after Cheney Big Time)

So, a split-second mistake as a result of a hunting partner stepping out of the hunting line is a "shot heard round the world"?

Did Newsweek have a similar tabloid headline when Bill Clinton deliberately put a cigar up a woman's vagina?

[RayChuang88]

And you wonder why people distrust the MSM nowadays.

[Mr_Moonlight]

If, as he they ponders the Threat Matrix at his their daily intelligence Dem talking points briefing, Cheney The Mainstream Media really sees himself themself as a modern Achilles or Hector Woodward and Bernstein on the plains at Troy underneth the parking garage, he is they are not just being grandiose idiots.

There ... fixed it .....

[Lunatic Fringe]

Actually I didn't think the article was that bad.
