It is simply fodder for low information people to glance at while they're stuck in a line at the checkout.
Jewish students in the Ivy League, I’m here to offer an invitation: Come to the South, where you’ll be safe.
It’s manifestly not safe to be an Ivy League Jew. A prominent Columbia rabbi “strongly” advised Jewish students to go home and not come back: It’s become clear “Columbia University’s Public Safety and the NYPD cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety in the face of extreme antisemitism and anarchy,” Rabbi Elie Buechler told students this week over WhatsApp.
...
My advice to Jewish students at these institutions: Come on down. At schools like mine, the University of Tennessee, in red states, such intimidation, harassment and lawlessness aren’t tolerated.
In my city of Knoxville, after Hamas’ Oct. 7 rape/torture/murder/kidnapping spree, we had a pro-Israel rally attended by all our major civic leaders. The allegedly elite schools had marches in support of Hamas.
In the red states, support for Israel isn’t controversial. In our allegedly elite northeastern and California universities it can get you mobbed.

The thing to understand about the National Enquirer...
…is you didn’t have to buy it to read it. you can steal it
You didn’t even have to consider buying it to read it. you just put your hand on the cover and absorb it
All you had to do was stand in the grocery store checkout aisle and there it was, with pictures and big headlines promising huge exclusive stories.
So even if you were just standing there, the chances it might subliminally affect you are notable. only if you are a low IQ dummy who’s brainwashed and can only listen to the party lines.
Hillary Clinton, a crook? most definitely and a liar.
Hillary Clinton, deathly ill? we should be so lucky
Donald Trump, the victim of a set up? most definitely, the left is deathly afraid he will get elected again and spoil their plans to destroy America

Donald Trump, the victim of a set up?
All of these things could be communicated without even an actual word being said.
And given the margin in the swing states in 2016, the subliminal impact of tabloid headlines on possible voters was much more substantial than you or I might want to admit.
ON EDIT: What Trump sought to use the Enquirer for as free advertising and disinformation was the same as what the Russians did for him with social media. Two different types of media but same intended result.
