Hitler diaries
Where is the "Hitler Diaries" scandal and the role Newsweek played in it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.0.30.103 (talk) 09:09, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Claims of bias
An editor has been inserting a section called "Claims of bias." Another editor has been removing it. Frankly, there is only one claim of bias there, so it's pretty much just one person's opinion. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 21:32, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

Croatia World Cup
I reverted this. User:United Union uses the argument on my talk page that "Author did use that headline". That's wrong, journallists don't write the headlines, headline writers do (hell, I've never been a journalist but I wrote headlines for the Miami Herald when I was a PA to the city editor). We've discussed headlines at RSN, they aren't reliable sources. I'm also told that Newsweek retracted it, although I searched for a retraction before I reverted and couldn't find one. I also found sources with the same claims. And as I said in my edit summary, Croatia's president denies it but then "she has openly associated with Ustasha sympathisers,". Obviously I could have missed something but I think we should have other eyes before reinstating this, and of course better sources. Doug Weller talk 08:32, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say that it matters who wrote it, journalist or headline writer, but rather who published it, and in this case it was Newsweek. If this was article about the C. Maza, then it would be relevant, but it's not. Headline, and a text, later removed, can be seen in the screenshot. The correction notice is under the article. Can Thompson be considered a controversial figure? Yes. But did he start this particular performance by screaming Ustashe battle cries with audience making Nazi salutes as implied in the article? No. I somehow doubt they would agree to make any change in the article if it was correct in the first place, but they did, so yeah... United Union (talk) 12:40, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Birther Conspiracy
Is it notable that this magazine ran an editorial defending an opinion piece they ran, which claimed that questioning whether Kamala Harris was eligible to run for VP on the grounds that her parents we immigrants, saying it was not racist birtherism? 38.65.100.100 (talk) 13:59, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * That sentence makes no sense. Try again, and with a citation. O3000 (talk) 14:01, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2020/08/the-wikipedia-war-over-kamala-harris-race/615250/ is probably relevant, — Paleo Neonate  – 08:15, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

3.2: Factual Errors
"In August 2018, Newsweek falsely reported that the Sweden Democrats, a far-right party, could win a majority in the 2018 Swedish parliamentary elections. Polls showed that the party was far away from winning a majority."

I don't think you can call it "false" that the Sweden Democrats "could win a majority" in what was at the time a future election unless there was no mathematical way for them to do so. Could someone knowledgeable about Swedish elections weigh in on whether or not that was the case? (Side note: The party's Wikipedia page indicates that there's not a consensus on whether or not it should be classified as "far-right.") — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oooooooseven (talk • contribs) 22:23, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
