“If there were a market for an opinion journal that could sell in excess of a million copies, it would have revealed itself before this.” That’s John Podhoretz, writing in Commentary. I’d tell you to read the whole thing and all that, but what more really needs to be said?

It worked for the Enquirer. Last I heard, they’re back above a million circ.
And, you know, it’s all “opinion”.
jaymaster, that’s a great idea. “Sarah Palin’s Pet Yeti Ate My Baby”, read all about it in the new Newsweek. Their readers are gullible enough to swallow it.
Meh. Those are the (approximate) words that every successful entrepreneur hears fucking endlessly right up until they get rich.
The real problem is that a bunch of tired, brain-dead Progressives are running Newsweek, and if they had a real entrepreneur in their midst they’d burn them at the stake (and then purchase the offsetting carbon credits, of course).
The reason opinion doesn’t sell well anymore is that the old “like assholes” joke has become so uncomfortably close to absolutely true that it’s no longer a joke.
You know, if they just changed the name to DNC Talkingpoints Week they’d probably sell better, just for the Right to see what the Left wants to blather about.
Hey, who deprecated the blockquote tag in my previous comment!?
