Chaos roiled the Newsweek offices Monday with the firings of the editor-in-chief, his number two and three reporters — possibly in retaliation for their unfavorable coverage of the company.

Johnathan Davis, the co-founder/CEO of Newsweek Media Group, ordered the firing of top editor Bob Roe, his deputy Ken Li and reporters Celeste Katz and Josh Saul, as well as Josh Keefe, a reporter for the International Business Times, a sister company, a source said.

NYPD said it wasn't them - FBI was checking identifying numbers on computers.

Newsweek was cooking the 'circulation' books - claiming more 'eyes' on ads than existed. In short, they were stealing from their advertisers.

The thieves/editors should be arrested for theft - not 'let go'... Maybe an advertiser who resents the crap out of being robbed will go to the police.

Probably not, because Newsweek has the money to 'pay the robbed victims' back - or offer them free future ads. They're liberals after all - so they'll get a pass that common criminals don't get.

Bank robbers and other lowlifes can't 'buy off their victims' when they get caught. Newsweek can. Newsweek was a liberal elite publication ... they'll skate AND the other crooks in the industry will cover for them. Count on it.

"Is it the one that was sold for $1.00?"

Yup.

Newsweek sold for $1. Who’s the sucker?

"That’s what Sidney Harmon, the 91-year old husband of California Democrat Rep Jane Harmon, plans to do now that his $1 bid for Newsweek has been accepted."

I don't know what he planned to do, but what he did do, is die, one year after buying the magazine.

A year after that, it was sold again, on terms that haven't been revealed.
