Totally forgot I had just subscribed to this magazine, and here it is the cover with Sarah Palin...Babies Lies & Scandal. I am so greatful I had chosen the option of bill me later and have not made any payment for my subscription. Needless to say when the bill comes in the mail I'm writing CANCEL on the form and they are not getting a cent of my money. I read the article and it's a direct attack and it's sickening that this media has done this to someone.
Even more apolling is that two pages in is "Michelle's (Obama's wife) Campaign Style"
Showing off Michelle's fashion sense and included pictures of her with her two girls and with her husband.
I don't care what side you are on, this months magazine is totally one sided. I trust anyone could see that.
I'm embarrassed that this magazine has my name on the front as subscriber!

I don't read that magazine but if I had encountered what you did, I would have done the same thing.
Most of the media is so biased and it makes me sick.

I guess his being a 'community organizer' cancels out all that.

US Magazine is off its rocker. Last month it was all about why Barack loves Michelle so much, this month is all about putting out non sense lies about Gov. Sarah Palin. As you have written even in this months issue that was suppose to be about Sarah they just could not help themselves by putting Michelle into the issue. Last month was all about the Obamas not one article about the McCain's. What about an article about Cindy's campaign style, US magazine. One last thought to remember, the late Sam Walton once said the the free market was democracy at its finest, people get to vote with their pocket book. If people stop buying this checkout stand mag US Mag would have to be more responsible.

I actually remember when US magazine was not a pure tabloid. It seems like a long long time ago. I'm pretty disgusted by what this magazine has become. And OK, fans of the magazine I'm sorry if that offends you, but the stuff they print is just not what I'm used to reading. They do whole cover stories about people they haven't spoken to, and all their sources are 'a close family friend' and the like. Which means it is all speculation and low blows. I also cannot stand bias, which US magazine is not the only magazine who is guilty of it.

My grandmother was just telling me about Reader's Digest doing the same thing. Said that their was articles on Obama and McCain in the same one... Had a picture of Obama smiling and looking so good and they used for the picture of McCain one of him frowning... was talking glowingly of Obama and McCain was not even close to comparison. I haven't seen it myself yet but I will this week. This is terrible. McCain's getting slammed, and you can't talk at all about Obama's downfalls.
