Sarah Palin Covers ‘Newsweek’ with Shotgun

Gun-toting Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin is on the cover of the new issue of ‘Newsweek’ magazine. There is a lengthy article within the pages, that can be found online HERE, that goes into a great amount of detail about her growing up in Alaska, her family, and her beliefs on a number of subjects.
Earlier today we posted a photo of the new Sarah Palin action figure toy.
Last week we reported on the slanted and biased ‘US Weekly’ cover of Palin with the headline: “Babies, Lies and Scandals.” The subscription department at ‘US’ has been flooded with thousands of angry subscribers canceling their subscriptions. The hit piece has caused such an uproar that ‘US’ is now offering five free issues to those trying to cancel becaue of the Palin cover.

We are sorry you are upset over the Governor Palin cover. We do not want to lose you as a subscriber over one article in one issue. In an effort to keep you as a subscriber, we will add five FREE issues to your subscription. Please let us know if you would like us to extend your current subscription rather than canceling our publication.
Thank you,

Ouch! Well good luck to ‘US’ in trying to buy off the thousands of pissed readers. Just another example of not mixing politics with family, friends or celeb gossip tabloids.
Palin is the most talked about person in America right now and is overshadowing both Presidential candidates.
