story on the front page.

it's also very telling that r/politics basically has no new content on weekends... apparently news only happens during regular office business hours.

They're pretty sleazy, IMO. Very misleading headlines, poor reporting.

The Newsweek label is being used like someone shoving their hand up a corpse and trying to make it look alive like a puppet. -- nm - Reagen Oct 22, 14:50 8

        I believe in freedom of the press, even if I don't like how it's always presented. I'm against people like you and trump who want to muzzle "news" - zunk takes things literally Oct 22, 16:59
