But this one could be even more fun:
Conservative outlet NewsMax is putting in a bid for liberal Newsweek magazine
Newsweek reporters are nervous, an employee told The Daily Caller, about being owned by the conservative Newsmax media company, which announced Wednesday that it had placed a bid to purchase the money-losing magazine.
Newsweek’s owner, the Washington Post Company, put up the weekly for sale in May, about a year after a major redesign that included targeting an affluent audience with left-leaning thought pieces.
Newsmax Media spokesman Scott Rosenblum confirmed the bid to The Daily Caller, saying in a statement that if the bid is successful, “Newsweek would continue in its mission to objectively report the news and provide analysis from a wide spectrum of perspectives.”
Wow.. who'd have thought that they're concerned that Newsweek might actually have to go back to.. reporting the news? Of course, one of the more fun lines is:
As for whether the liberal contributors would stick around, the founder of the liberal DailyKos blog said he wouldn’t have a problem doing so. “If they wanted to pay me to write something, then sure. I’d take wingnut money to tell them how wrong they are,” said Markos Moulitsas, who writes frequently for Newsweek.Bwahaha... thanks for the laugh 'kos!! I really needed that one to make my day! You really need to work on that "Things to say to my boss to keep myself employed!" :)
But wait.. there's even more!
