In early December 2023, the cover of an American magazine dedicated to the death of a former Secretary of State of the United States spread on the network. The President of Ukraine is also present in this figure. We decided to check if this is a real cover.
On December 1, the cover of the American magazine The Nation appeared on social networks. The figure shows the falling to Hell Henry Kissinger and US President Joe Biden, who clings to the edge of the cliff. Zelensky stands above them and asks: "Joe, what is the password from the credit card?" This cover appeared the day after it became known about the death of a former US Secretary of State. The caricature was reported, for example, Telegram channels "Olesya Loseva"(13,000 views at the time of writing this analysis),"V🇷🇺ruka Kremlin🇷🇺z"(6000) and"Vzvod"(5000).
Henry Kissinger died November 29, 2023 - in Moscow it was already morning on November 30. The cover began to spread in social networks a little more than a day after that. It is difficult to imagine that in such a short time a full -fledged issue of the magazine was prepared, in which, judging by the virus image, there are allegedly other articles not related to Kissinger - their headlines are indicated in the upper right corner of the viral image.
Under the name of the magazine on the cover distributed in social networks, it is indicated that this is a special issue, on the right above the name - the date on November 30. The Nation is released at the time of two weeks, and two dates are usually indicated on the journal - by November 30, a number for sale was received for sale November 27 / December 4. It is dedicated to a completely different topic: the fate of Jennifer Weisselberg, the former wife of the company Trump Organization. The title on the cover of the real number reads: “No longer married to the mafia”, playing the name famous film. The special missiles of The Nation go out once a year, at the end of December, and other similar numbers with the magazine over the past two years There was no.
For 2022–2023, The Nation has never placed a portrait of Zelensky on the cover. But the number dedicated to Henry Kissinger, I went out At the end of May 2023. On the cover, the former Secretary of State of the United States, who then turned 100 years old, sits in front of a cake with candles. A glaze similar to the cake flows from the cake, on which the names of countries are written where the United States has a dubious policy under Kissinger: Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Chile, Bangladesh, etc.
On the image distributed in social networks, there are smaller inconsistencies. So, the font, which printed the name of the site of the publication in the lower left corner of the picture, differs from the present. This is especially noticeable in the example of the letter M.
The nation is the primary source of the fake cover of The Nation "The Telegram channel"Vzvod", Where a post with this image appeared on December 1 at 14:31 Moscow time. This is not the first fake cover of The Nation, which is disassembled by “verified”. At the end of June 2023 in Telegram she was encouraged coverdedicated to the death of the Batiscaf “Titan” and Zelensky, complaining about lack of attention from the media. The primary source was then the Telegram channel Olesya Losev, which published a cover with Kissinger.
