KFodor commented on Betrayed by the Zeitgeist she once channeled, Tina Brown invokes it one last time

What print media generally doesn't get in this country is this: The people are sick and tired of publications that try to tell them how to think. Print publications generally think the world revolves around them...thus, they believe everyone wants to know their opinion on the issues. Nothing could be more wrong. Average Joe American wants to read about the issues from both or all sides. He considers himself smart enough to read the various opinions and then make a decision on his own about which side he's on. You see, print media forgets they are called "NEWSmagazines" and "NEWSpapers" for a reason. Report the news...leave your opinions out of it. Average Joe can think for himself, regardless of what you publishers and self-aggrandizing reporters think.
