Rolling Stone is a bi-weekly magazine that primarily publishes stories about the music industry, but it also reports on more serious topics with a liberal bias. Founded in San Francisco in 1967, the magazine has undergone changes in focus and image ever since.
In June 2022, Rolling Stone published numerous pro-abortion articles after the reversal of Roe v. Wade, without publishing pro-life articles to balance them.
Its reporting on politics is considered by conservatives to be extraordinarily one-sided. In its list of the ten worst congressmen, nine out of ten were Republican.[1]
Additional examples of Rolling Stone work include:
- a story promoting sensational -- but demonstrably false -- anti-ivermectin assertions about an emergency room being filled with victims of the medication. Rolling Stone ran a correction but did not correct its misleading headline.[2]
- a cover mocking President George W. Bush with a dunce cap in the corner with an inside article by a professor claiming that Bush has a "combination of impotence, laziness and ineptitude for the job"[3]
- an article by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. insisting that Bush stole the election of 2004,[4] which the former President Bill Clinton then described as "compelling"
- a pre-election article in 2004 urging voters to cast their ballots for John Kerry.
- a cover with the Boston Marothon Bombing-terrorist Dzhokhar Tsarnaev[5]
The magazine has employed a number of notable correspondents, including the liberal, drug-abusing, and Anti-Christian Hunter S. Thompson, and the late libertarian P.J.O'Rourke.
Al Gore and Bill Clinton continued to be featured frequently in Rolling Stone, long after their relevancy passed.
