Sputnik — Newsweek Claims Russia Orchestrated Boston Marathon Bombing

Online publication Newsweek upped the ante in explosive rhetoric Sunday by suggesting the Tsarnaev brothers, responsible for the 2013 Boston Marathon terror attack, were operating on behalf of Moscow – even though Russian security agencies tipped off the FBI and CIA that Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his mother presented imminent security risks....

Propaganda machine gears up.

Zero Hedge — Fake News: Newsweek Admits They Didn't Write Or Even Read "Madam President" Issue

The ultimate smackdown for MSM.

Newsweek's political editor, Matthew Cooper, looked as though he'd had a rough month when he appeared on the Tucker Carlson show last night to discuss the "Madam President" debacle. While the printing and distribution of the erroneous "commemorative edition" magazine was embarrassing enough, Cooper also revealed that no one at Newsweek wrote the Hillary article or even bothered to proofread it before it was shipped off to stores around the country.

Frankly, it's difficult to discern between fact and fiction with this story, but, given the quality of the writing, we suspect Cooper had little choice but to distance himself and his team completely from the magazine.…

So, as Zero Hedge and others come under attack from the mainstream media for reporting "fake news", we now have a concrete example of an establishment "news" source admitting that it printed and distributed fake news under it's corporate brand that it neither wrote nor even bothered to read, yet no one, other than Fox News, says a word?

Like I've been saying, anyone who believes anything in the US media without verifying it is a fool.

We can stop earth-killing asteroids. But how will we pay??? How fucking stupid are we becoming?

How fucking stupid are we becoming as a species? (Maybe a question for Roger Erickson.)

Newsweek (that magazine is still around?) poses this question on its cover: "How would we "pay" to protect ourselves from an "earth-killing" asteroid?"

So we'd limit ourselves to not making keystrokes on a computer when faced with planetary destruction? Suicide by stupidity.

Funny...we never do that when fighting war. Newsweek couldn't see that?
