The attack on the 50-year-old executive—allegedly by the now 27-year-old Luigi Mangione—immediately sparked an outpouring of public fury not at the gunman, but at UnitedHealthcare itself.

      We gotta take anything we read on media sites like Newsweek with a shovel of salt. Newsweek is a shadow of its former self.

      That said, yeah United’s stock evaluation took a huge hit. But it’s still higher than it’s been in decades. It’s likely to turn around as these kinds of companies have a lot of tricks for restructuring and continuing business as usual. We have a long way to go before we see these kinds of companies actually fear the people they’re supposed to be serving.

        Honestly don’t trust Newsweek at all. Kept on promoting the idea that Biden totally had the election, comforting lies is all they provide and I don’t read the news to feel at ease.
