I don’t know that it’s agitprop, many other outlets reported on this as well and Newsweek’s article seems rather matter-of-factly and doesn’t really take any sides on this issue. As far as political leaning goes, Newsweek is pretty much right in the center, that’s why I chose their article on it, in order to have as little bias as possible.

Citing “Forbes”, a magazine owned and operated by a former Republican Presidential candidate and The Wall Street Journal, a Murdoch publication, in the center of the spectrum is… definitely one way to weight the scales. Bloomberg, a publication entirely by and for Wall Street, is center-left? Hell, the State Department’s favorite news network, MSNBC, is in the same column as Jacobin and The Intercept?
Feel free to provide a better chart, I just googled “media bias” and clicked the first link that came up.
Either way, as far as I know, Newsweek isn’t exactly known for spicy takes or hardline opinions. It also just happened to be the first search result, so perhaps I’m just lazy.
