1. Well, I'm glad I cancelled my subscription when * was "man of the year"

[hlthe2b]

27. ditto

[NV Whino]

2. Target practice

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Gawd. Thousands of stacks of the magazine will spontaneously combust

if the Bride of Beelzebub appears on the cover. I'm so glad I didn't renew my subscription, and I hope other people cancel theirs en masse.

[terrya]

4. Well, I was running out of Charmin....

[JitterbugPerfume]

6. Bizarro world

<sigh>

[emanymton]

5. Ann Coulter Is A Man In A Dress ...

Who says GOP is not open to cross dressing men who look "good?" in a dress?


Bush Lied, People Died, Media Cheered.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

7. The Neo-Liberal media is desperate to make Coulter into

a "mainstream" personality despite her well-known racist views.

[Warpy]

20. WTF does "neoliberal" mean?

And why would anybody on one of these boards use it? It's a right wing pejorative made up by people who are desperate to affix the term "liberal" in any form to everything around them they find wanting, especially things that are clearly ANTI-LIBERAL.

The media are right wing, owned by corporations who are pandering to the present administration so that those nasty little antitrust laws won't jump up and bite them when they go on to bigger and bigger mergers.

There is NOTHING remotely liberal about the mass media in this country.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

25. Neo-Liberal aka Thatcherism aka Reaganomics

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo-liberal

Neo-Liberal is not a right-wing pejorative term.

It's a partial play on words. You'll hear people on these boards use the term "liberal media" or "librul media" in an ironic way. Neo-Liberalism refers to policies that undermine social justice and promote free-market and monetarist policies. I'm quite disappointed that you would attack me before actually finding out what "neo-liberal" means.

[the_spectator]

26. What "neoliberal" means.

The rest of the world, especially Latin America and Europe, uses "neoliberal" to mean what people in the U.S. mean by "conservative." "Liberalism" emerged in the 19th century, and it is derived from the word LIBERTY. Liberals of the 19th century believed in capitalism, parliamentary democracy, property rights, and a kind of social darwinist attitude towards the working class. It was the dominant ideology of the 19th century bourgeoisie. It is also, basically, the belief system of Republicans like Reagan, GWB, neoconservatives, etc. (not so much the theocons). Thus the term, "neo-liberal." The progressive attitudes that in the U.S. we call "liberal" are properly called socialist or social democrat in Europe.

So no, the poster you are responding to is not trying to knock the left.

[Maine-ah]

8. contact Time Mag.

[wndycty]

9. Should we wait to see it. . .

. . .maybe she is on the cover for negative reasons.

[blondeatlast]

50. We should check out the Time site, which I have provided a link to

downthread. It isn't so.

[GetTheRightVote]

10. I will never buy time again either, they suck, right wingers for sure

:kick:

[kittenpants]

11. what the hell...

that is just bizarre.

[against all enemies]

12. Is it a story on eating disorders or idiots?

[shance]

28. Are we talking about the Bitter Baghdad-hating Bulimic?

My apologies. I didn't mean Baghdad.

She hates everything and everybody, not just Baghdad.

[progressoid]

13. Umm...this "news" comes via the NY post so,

a huge grain of salt needed here.

Also, this Time magazine, is that the same one that I might have read back in the 70's? I think I've seen it in my dentist's office, but I never read it since it always seems to have a picture of * or Jesus on the cover.

[wndycty]

14. Can't we wait 24 hours before we descredit this report?

:kick:

[progressoid]

18. It's gossip from a rag with the cover story "Boob Job Beast"!!!

[blondeatlast]

48. Why on earth should we do that?

:wtf:

[mcscajun]

15. Looks like they're off the beam on this one.

The current issue cover is "The Math Myth"; the issue to hit the stands tomorrow has "How To End Poverty" on the cover.


http://www.time.com/time/

[progressoid]

16. Well, I guess she lost out to

something "else ground-breaking"

[GalleryGod]

17. Jeez! The POST got a story Wrong!? Now there's "News" !?

:wtf: However-having said that-I would not be surrpized if Time put Annie-Fanny on it's cover:argh:

Folks,Listen-Up: The Mags we grew up with NO Longer Exist! :think:

[old blue]

34. "The Math Myth"???

So they gave the cover to the fundies then??

[blondeatlast]

51. Sigh... Anne was NEVER the cover, there isn't even a story on her

planned for that issue.

[blondeatlast]

19. Hold your horses, everyone; this is the cover they have planned.

http://www.time.com/time/magazine/0,9263,1101050307,00.html

I don't think that there is much that even Anne could do to make them change the cover to HER before Tuesday.

There are a lot of thing many others could do, but not Anne.


Edit: fixed the link, but you must click for the cover, it won't copy here.

[paineinthearse]

21. Time cover for March 7.

... and Coulter's reaction

[Cooley Hurd]

35. Naw, I have it here:

[ooglymoogly]

22. when you click to enlarge the cover

says cover not available till after five monday. so unless i'm missing something nothing is definitive that we can tell from times page

[blondeatlast]

42. I don't think they are "final" until Monday, but for now, it's clear Anne

isn't it, so to speak.

[Occulus]

45. I think that means

they can't show the whole thing until it's published.

When does this issue go on sale?

[LincolnMcGrath]

23. Her whining finally paid off.

She was whining to Hannity awhile back because Al Franken was getting good press when he started on his show. Both her and Sean Whined and Whined and Whined and Whined and Whined and Whined how the liberal press never give them any flattering press. Guess the WHINING paid off.




Liberal Media My ASS!

[lonestarnot]

24. Oh good a new dart board cometh! n/t

30. She will be an inspiration to narcissists everywhere who use hate to get

attention and make a name for themselves. Bravo, Ann!

[Sugar Smack]

31. YES! That poor girl wasn't getting enough attention, so-

maybe this'll be just the thing to mollify her little feelings! Just in time to take the heat off that dem biddy Martha!!! <sarcasm off>

[SodoffBush]

32. You cannot be fucking serious

I got a trial subscription to Time, and still they keep sending me magazines even though I haven't extended the subscription.

W/Coulter on the cover, I don't want the magazine sent to me even for free.

[Stop_the_War]

33. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Ann coulter is going to be on Time?
:wow:

[Arkana]

36. Oh, no...

I get Time at school! I'm gonna have to gouge my eyes out!

[Alex146]

37. Hitler was on the Cover of Time

'nuf said.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

38. Um, why are DU'ers, of all people, trusting the NY Post?

Isn't that, like, the worst piece of shit rag in the U.S.?

Everyone here's bursting into flames at the thought of this -- yet its the NY Post that reported it. What possible reason could Time have for putting her on the cover? She hasn't done anything but be a constant idiot.

[SeveneightyWhoa]

39. Oh and this is the GOSSIP column we're talking about--

Which guarantees that this is pure B.S.

[blondeatlast]

44. Not to mention that when I read the piece, there was nary a word about it.

[blondeatlast]

43. I have the same reaction; I saw the story and went straight to the Time si

It's been disproven at least three times by different people in this thread, and people still react as if the cover is in stone.

[jdots]

40. Is that dart board size ?

[ck4829]

41. I wonder if Coulter will follow ** and also become MAN of the Year

[durutti]

46. It's interesting to see the difference in how the media cover Coulter and

in how they cover Michael Moore.

[hopein08]

47. I'd only buy it to burn it... n/t

[blondeatlast]

49. DUers, PLEASE. It isn't anywhere near true.

First, read the link in the original post--no mention of it ANYWHERE.

Edit: Okay--on this point I stand corrected, but--there is no Anne Coulter story listed on that issue's page. Hence, no cover.

Then go to the Time site; they have another cover planned, and barring something earth-shattering (which Anne can't muster, try as she might), they have another cover planeed--AND NO STORY ABOUT ANNE.

I despise Anne Coulter, believe me, but let's be intelligent about this. If we react to lies and half-truths, we are no better than THEM.

[jdj]

52. here it is from the link:

" FYI: Political pundit Anne Coulter has finally made it. The blond bombshell's mouthing off has landed her on the cover of Time Magazine. Expect to see her this Monday if nothing else ground-breaking happens in the world ..."

the woman on the cover does look like coulter, though, maybe this columnist read the headline as "mealymouth" instead of "math myth" or something.

this just looks like a really sloppy mistake by this writer, she saw the pic and jumped to a conclusion, if that photo posted here really is the cover and not a photoshop.
