Sarah Palin on Newsweek Hit Piece: I Don't Trust Newsweek… "That's One of the Reasons They're Going Down" (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, June 12, 2010, 7:39 AM
Here is a look at Newsweek’s latest hit piece on Sarah Palin and conservative women:
After the success of the candidates that Sarah Palin endorsed in this past week’s primaries, Newsweek predictably mocks Sarah and Conservative American women. They must all be wingnut Christofascists, you know.
Today Sarah Palin commented on this latest Newsweek Palin hit piece:
“I don’t trust their reporting all of the time… That’s one of the reasons they’re going down.”
Alisyn Camerota: This coming week you are on Newsweek magazine’s cover and the title is, “What Palin’s appeal to conservative Christian women says about feminism.” What does it say about feminism?
Sarah Palin: I haven’t read the article and I don’t trust a lot of the things that Newsweek covers and I think that is the reason Newsweek is going down because a whole lot of people, along with me, don’t believe what they cover.

I hope NewsMax buys Newsweek and keep the name Newsweek.
Then any subscribers would see the truth coming out instead of Obama propaganda.
NewsMax I support you!
John Gargano commented:
Many, many people do not trust Newsweek. Nor do they trust:
Barack Obama
Joe Biden
Harry Reid
Nancy Pelosi
Eric Holder
Ken Salazar
Janet From Another Planet
Hilda Solis
Tim Geitner
Kathleen Sebelius
Carol Browner
And many others in the current administration.
Lets hope they ALL go down.

Palin is right! Newsweek is history. The Chicago Sun Times is up and coming as regards to the corruption trial of Blago. Extra! Extra! Read All About it.

Could it be that Blago, Edward Burke. Tony Rezko and the people in the Whitehouse are all connected to the mob?
MathMom commented:
Well, I can see one upside to this Newsweek photo. Finally, someone besides Obama merits a halo!
The Right Guy commented:
If I am to read it correctly, it sounds like she is saying they are going down because she doesn’t trust what they are saying. I know it is a matter of context, but it makes her seem a little self-important, which would be so surprising.
Andreas K. commented:
Newsweek… bah. What these morons don’t get is, that you don’t have to be a “wingnut Christofascist” to oppose Obama. I’m not a wingnut, I’m not a Christian and I totally dislike Obama’s policies. They are disastrous. That’s why I’m against him. I can see how his crap doesn’t work on a daily basis.
And feminism? Feminism is dead, thanks to the feminazis and their BS. Modern feminists don’t care about the women, they only care about more power.
neomom commented:
It’s fun to sit in the doctors office with a pen and edit stories and point out lies in the News(weak). With O’ care we will all have a lot of time to do that. Sarah lives rent free deep in all of their mellons. She will destroy them one smile at a time.

Too bad the Section VIII crowd doesn’t read. Newsweek could be their magazine.

..and I will leave it to the reader to figure out who is who…
newton commented:
First, that “How Can We Solve a Problem Like Sarah” cover. Now, this!
NewsMax can’t buy Newsweek soon enough!
Their next step should be to fire all of Newsweek’s reporters. Maybe they’ll find jobs in Mother Jones or The Nation… or maybe not.
Bindar commented:
I, for one, trust Newsweek implicitly. I trust them to spout all the Democrat talking points, to bash Republicans, and to be totally illogical. Most people share Sarah’s disdain for what Newsweek has become. It is straight propaganda all the time with very little real news or analysis. That’s why they are going down. No circulation to speak of and it’s numbers still dropping. It’s the road to oblivion!
Glockfixer commented:
I quit trusting Snoozeweak a long time ago. They have become a propaganda sheet for the DNC. What they don’t parrot from the DNC are fluff pieces that have absolutely no relevance to news.
NewsMax is trying to buy them? That can’t come soon enough!
Just_Saying commented:
The Right Guy, #6: “they are going down because she doesn’t trust what they are saying…”
Newsweek is going down because they are not trustworthy.

susan commented:
Most here know I am as far from ‘Christian Conservative woman’ as one can get though the last couple years I am beginning to appreciate their positive influence upon the power of Womanhood-womb and all!
I lived the life ‘Feminists’ thought I should live and am here to say that Feminists may have broken the glass but they became the oppressive ceiling; darlings, we are all equalized chauvinist pigs NOW equally.
Or rather; Gloria Steinem may have burned our bras, she left a legacy of sagging DDD-sized siliconed breasts worn on anorexic, skeletal bodies with botox stiffen-like-Pelosi-faces screaming about the plight of Eve Ensler’s dis-eased va-jay-jay.
At the risk of being accused of ‘groupie’ I will say this:
I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar: Go Sarah Palin fight the chauvinist pigs NOW!
Robespierres Id commented:
The dying gasps of a crappy magazine that not even clueless MDs want in their waiting rooms anymore…
Boycott Newsweek and the rest of the MSM…
wanumba commented:
NEWSWEEK proves again they are stupid. Last time they put up Palin in her shorts with the flag, took the photo off a RUNNER’SWORLD article and stuck it on NEWSWEEK’s cover.
How lazy is that? They must have five people left working for that magazine, everyone else fled or got laid off. It’s hardly more than a pamphlet now, or an 8 1/2 x 11 poster. They should just print the cover on thicker stock and set it out. No one reads what little they have left inside anyway.
In their bubble thinking, Palin in shorts with a FLAG is the height of stupid. But to A LOT of AMericans, Sarah Palin in shorts is, well HOT, and Patriotic HOT with a flag. So, the cover, MEANT to be a negative was a POSITIVE. For over a week, shoppers saw a flattering pix of Patriotic, athletic good-looking Palin. Total PLUS for Palin.
Now, same bubble thinking puts up the WORST thing they can conjure, a religious nut. But, It’s Mrs. Positive again, so to the public, it’s fine, and maybe she’s a good person who loves God.
Uh , oh. They are so insular they don’t think to test their displays of sarcasm before they put them out. This cover will be sitting at the checkout for week, with SAINT SARAH on it. THat’s ALL people are going to see. They are going home, with Sarah Palin = Saint.
Another win for Palin.

For those who don’t know: Sikhs are not Muslims. They are the ones who wear the turbans, they are Indians, and they are peaceful people not to be confused with either Muslims or fascists.

googiesmama commented:
The Left is starting to realize just how unstoppable Sarah Palin is in the 2012 election. They are trying to prevent voters from identifying her as a feminist. That’s they’re biggest fear, but they are waaaaay too late. Articles like this only unmask THE Feminist movement as purely ideological and not about women at all.
Eden commented:
The only way they can sell their rag is to put her on the front.

Hmmm….
Joanne commented:
Christian women are feminine and do not define themselves as women who believe the killing of their unborn children is a right.
Sarah Palin is a woman who has it all and didn’t have to abort her offspring to have it – it must make feminists blood boil to see someone actually achieve what they have promoted cannot be achieved.
As far as I am concerned, the feminist movement has been the primary force behind the disintegration of families.

……..
Uh, not exactly. They shouldn’t be confused with Muslims or facists, or Hindus from which they started from, but… The Sikh’s holy temple in Amritsar is wall to wall murals of Sikhs in battles, usually slaughtering Muslims, their mortal enemies.
I admit they’re a bit wussier now, but they were thrown out of new Muslim Pakistan in Partition in 1948, resettled on the Indian side of the new border, then for a while jacked up a Sikh independence movement, which employed terrorism, including blowing up an Indian airliner, killing all aboard. Indira Ghandi’s Sikh bodyguards assissinated her during her morning walk in retaliation against her ordering an assault on their temple in Amritsar where Sikh extremists were holed up after battling it out with Indian troops. Hindus rampaged against Sikhs in rage, hundreds of Sikhs, men, women and children were killed. AS a Hindu dryly noted afterwards, “It would have been worse, but you know … the Sikhs can fight.”
Sikhs still make up the lions’ share of the Indian military, plus form the British Sikh regiment.
wanumba commented:
So, a Christian of Sikh descent is actually an awesomely cool combo.
Joanne commented:
The Sikh’s were great and loyal fighters with the British, and although, the Sikhs and Hindus are mortal enemies, they do have a common enemy – Muslims, which can make them friends in certain circumstances.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

AGREED. LOL
What they don’t admit is that at least half of the democrat women are Christians and support Sarah. That doesn’t even count the Indies who support Sarah.
LOL
After having the WORST UOTUS in the world as president, look who should talk. Look at the ongoing disasters on his watch that he refuses to own. No one will be voting for him the next time around. No one but the New Black Panthers, black people on the dole, Dead People, Jailed Inmates and members of the Nation of Islam.
What’s that? A couple million? LOL

I was talking with a buddy of mine, a Jew from eastern Europe. he was in the Ukraine the other day, visiting his family there and his grand uncle told him “All you need is a cossack leader, then get the cossacks and the muslims will sh*t themselves.”

It is quite amazing how failing mfm propagandists remain oblivious to their self destructive course. Like someone drowning who refuses assistance because they are convinced nothing is wrong.

Palin 10
Newsweek 1
Militant Conservative commented:
What we are witnessing is the the death of the MSM, due to other (better) outlets, like GP. The MSM is hastening their own demise by doing what they are doing, (propaganda). As far as Palin, they fear her for she WILL run again. This time without the baggage of John McCrazy.

Newsweek is not news, it is opinion by retards. That ‘s why I do not buy it. Nice carbon footprint their NewsCrap!

I go to a Methodist church, and we have a Sikh who is a member. He is an usher and does collection plate duty, wearing his turban.
BurmaShave commented:
As Eden #12 indicates, this is a desperate ploy by a desperate magazine that is going down the tubes.
Remember how Time and Newsweek were competing, a year or so ago, as to who could print more magazine covers with Obama’s puss on it. Everyone understood that they were pandering after the Panderer-in-Chief, and they were; but they were also slipstreaming, using Obama’s image to sell their magazines. Personally I pay as little attention to Time and Newsweek as is physically possible; however, somebody tell me if I am wrong: It appears that the practice of using Obama’s image (i.e., slipstreaming) to sell anything has died down to almost nothing.
However, Sarah sells. When Newsweek uses Sarah’s image to try to sell their magazine, which they diligently wrecked with years of blatantly biased writing, – really, you cannot call it journalism – it must hurt. It is sort of like the trust-baby wastrel realizing he is selling the last of his family’s assets to maintain his dissolute life style for a little while longer.
It also is funny that Palin is reflexively uninterested in whatever it is that Newsweek has to say.
Ginger commented:
Just wait….. When Sarah becomes president in 2012 she is going to show Barry the fraud how to kick ASS and this is why they, the Lib’s/socialist/Marxis/ communist/unions, etc are so scared of her!
Nan commented:
Newsweek is basically garbage unfit for the floor of bird cages. The good news is that the print media that is so left wing is all going down. When you don’t print the truth, eventually people realize it, and are smart enough not to buy trash. Conservatives automatically withdraw after being subjected to continuous insults and lies, and guess what, their readership drops, and then advertising revenues, and then they torpedo themselves, and get to lose their own jobs. Keep up the good work!!
Lester commented:
“I haven’t read the article…”
Then why is she going on tv to comment on it?
That is Sarah Palin in a nutshell, folks. Talking about something she knows nothing about.
Chisum commented:
“That is Sarah Palin in a nutshell, folks. Talking about something she knows nothing about.”
+++++++++++++++
Lester,
Sarah didn’t go on tv to talk about the article. She was on tv and asked about the article.
Unlike BO and his administration that went on record repeatedly to complain and lie about the Arizona immigration law. When asked if they had read the bill they each replied “NO”!
That is the BO administration in a nutshell, folks.
BarbaraS commented:
Let’s hope that comment of Palin’s will be the kiss of death to this treasonous rag. And isn’t it amusing that after all their outright lies and distortions about Palin she is more in the news now than she was before. She just keeps getting stronger and stronger and the MSM just keeps getting weaker and weaker. So weak they have to use Sarah’s image on their cover to sell the few magazines they do sell. All their efforts didn’t work to destroy Palin. However, it showed the country what liars the media really is.
Lester commented:
“Let’s hope that comment of Palin’s will be the kiss of death to this treasonous rag.”
Publishing articles taking a critical look at people you support is not the definition of treason.

does anyone subscribe to newsweek? the only place that I see it is the doctor’s office, usually published a year earlier. i guess that shows you must be sick if you read it!

“…it sounds like she is saying they are going down because she doesn’t trust what they are saying. I know it is a matter of context, but it makes her seem a little self-important…”
Actually, she said “a whole lot of people, along with me, don’t believe what they cover.” The complete quote is at the bottom of the post and on the video.
anonymous commented:
The Newsweek is going down. Newsmax is planning to buying it.
Regina Gibson commented:
I am sorry to see so much attention showered on Sarah Palin. As a mother, it seems to me that she should spend more time on her family, especially her son with Down’s syndrome. I really did not like it when she seemed to carry him around like a sack of potatoes on the campaign trail. Does anybody think the way I do?
