Answer 1

I know that I will never buy another copy.  However, I loved it when the editor interviewed with Megan Kelly, she has a degree in law and another in journalism and she made him look like a little boy with his hand caught in the cookie jar!

Answer 2

I have been sending that trashy magazine emails all week telling them that me and many others will boycott their magazine.

Answer 3

If I had a subscription, I would cancel it too.  I will NEVER buy Us Weekly or Men's Health off of the rack.  They're the same owners.

Answer 4

Karl Roves wet dream- make the election about issues that don't matter much and avoid the real issues everyone supports democrats on.

Answer 5

I lOVE IT

Answer 6

Oh my God, you can't take criticism but you can sure dish it out.

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Answer 7

This is actually just the liberal media getting spanked again.  Maybe this time they'll wake up.

The NY Times has been shedding many thousands of subscribers over the past few years.  MSNBC is the lowest rated cable news network for a reason.  People are watching less news on the big 3 networks and getting their news from the internet for a reason.

There's a reason conservative talk radio has become so popular in recent years.  It's because most major news media has given up on "fair and balanced."  If there was balance on CBS, NBC, ABC, NY Times, etc. people like Rush and Hannity would go out of business.

Answer 8

I call it a start.

Answer 9

Good.  I cancelled my newspaper subscription long ago for the same reason.  I'm not paying for false journalism.  Boycotting advertisers might bring the message home to the media that enough is enough.  The framers of the Constitution didn't give the Press a unique position so it could spew venom and a partisan message disguised as reporting.

Answer 10

As of this morning, it was over 10,000 and people pounding them with tens and thousands of emails, letters as well as boycotting their advertisers.  Justice is being served!!!  Yes.

Answer 11

I loved watching Megan just torture the editor of US on her show. Lots of people apparently saw the unfair liberal bias of this article, and now US is paying the price.

Answer 12

Funny MSNBC makes that report when they have less then 5 thousand viewers themselves.  Poetic justice for both of them.  

Answer 13

Nice to hear, rather surprised it was covered by msnbc though.  

Answer 14

Cool.  Last month they have Obama and The Mrs. all sweet and light "Why He Loves Her".  US magazine is owned by Rolling Stone's Jann Wenner. Can you say bias.

Launched as a bi-monthly publication in 1977, Us Magazine was acquired by Wenner Media in 1986 and is a part of Wenner Media LLC, which also publishes Rolling Stone and Men’s Journal.

Answer 15

no publicity is bad publicity...in the end this will benefit US weekly

Im not saying it is right, its just the truth.  We are a tabloid culture, ALL of us.
