Last week I guffawed at Jacob Weisberg’s expense when he took to the pages of Newsweek to attack Fox News for failing to be an objective news organization. I wrote:
What I think is hilarious is that Weisberg wrote this for Newsweek, which has relaunched itself, in the words of Andrew Ferguson, as a “liberal opinion magazine written by liberals who don’t want to admit they’re liberals.” The new Newsweek is everything Weisberg accuses Fox of being, just far more smug and dishonest about it (the old Newsweek was no great shakes, either). But I don’t think there’s any need to call for a boycott of it; consumers are doing exactly that already.
Well, here’s the cover story of Newsweek this week.
