Discussion: National Enquirer Publisher Denies Fed Gov't Had Say In 'Space Force' Magazine

TPM Article Topics

But the special publication devoted entirely to praising an initiative that Trump’s campaign is fundraising off of, rings eerily similar to its publication of “The New Kingdom” last year, an entire magazine devoted to praising Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, a key Trump ally.

As Josh has educated us readers, every publication relies on ad revenue to operate… they just forgot the ‘paid advertisement’ byline on the front of those issues.

Please don’t encourage Ivanka, I’d really rather see less (or none) Ivanka than more.

William Randolph Hearst did this kind of shit about a century ago.

Weekly World News did it much more recently.

According to Raw Story, the Space Force will operate from a secret base to be located on the dark side of the moon and stocked with individuals with super powers who will defend earth from interplantary menaces. I kid you not.

Here’s a look at some of the Space Force during their off hours.

BUT didn’t they show ‘malice’ by agreeing that they were ‘assisting’ the Trump campaign; how can the First Amendment apply in this case?

How many weeks were they blaring that HRC was about to die?

Even now I have seen headlines that all Trump’s ‘troubles’ are because he was ‘set up’ by The Clintons.

I just don’t see how the First Amendment applies to open LYING.

They don’t have a First Amendment right to LIE do they?

This just bugs me.

I’m confused. How does someone publish a 97-page anything? Is there some kind of Möbius insert involved?

39

How does someone write a 97 page story on a new branch of the military without talking to the White House, the Military, or the private sector related to the branch?

And isn’t it odd that this just drops days after Trump touts the Space Force.

Geez, I hate these people. I just do.
