Rolling Stone is punching back after a blog post claimed that the magazine “sold out” to President Trump and the Saudis under its owner Jay Penske led to calls for a boycott.
The story, by “The Hill Reporter” dubbed “The Demise of Rolling Stone: How A Legendary Magazine Sold Out to Trump and the Saudis,” ignited calls across the Twitterverse to #BoycottRollingStone on Friday in part by resurfacing old information about magazine’s parent company’s ties to the Saudis.
The story also blasted the Penske Media CEO for his ties to Trump, although it appeared to conflate the media mogul with his auto-racing magnate dad, Roger Penske.

[the Penske Media CEO for his ties to Trump]
Rolling Stone isn’t Penske material.
But then, neither was George.

Perfect. I had hoped to add that. Now I gets to swipes me anuther gif!
The woke culture is starting to eat their own.
Wait a minute, maybe they ARE Penske material!

That's okay, I'm sure the nice folks at Twitter will plaster a "fact checked" disclaimer over it. /rimshot
I remember when intellectuals were not obviously dumb.
When did the Hill Reporter purchase the Airways so they can dictate personal issues?????
I would suggest that Rolling Stone ‘readers’ have been snubbing/brushing off the magazine for forty-odd years. I don’t think I’ve touched the magazine since 1985.
I bought the first issue, then threw it in the trash where it belonged and never looked at the mag again.
So they would be much more comfortable and no issues raised if they sold out to joe stolen
Not going to be long before Cancel Culture utterly backfires upon itself.....
Boycott “Rolling Stone” over ties to Trump, but not over their own lousy reporting?

Robespierre dies.. ahhemm... wins again!

Excellent wording!
Nobody is Penske material. Not even Penske.
