Is anyone else horrified that a respectable (?) news magazine would publish an issue with this Photoshopped cover?
The article is somewhat interesting; who hasn’t thought about what Diana would be doing were she still alive? I like to think she and Kate would be BFF’s, but mostly that Diana would be HAPPY. The strangest part of the article was suggesting she and Charles would be confidantes. Yeah, um, I doubt that very much.
But the cover photo is what really creeped me out, and not a little bit. I would guess that it’s intentionally not a very good Photoshop job—it is so obviously not Diana’s body, her head is proportionately small next to Kate’s, etc. This inside photo was in poor taste, too:
Oh, so today’s Diana would have a few wrinkles and an iPhone? Gotcha.
The whole idea is just weird and, in my opinion, has an awfully high creep factor. Is Newsweek that desperate to sell their magazine? If I didn’t read all my news on the Internet, I’d totally cancel my subscription right now.
Whatever, Newsweek. I, for one, do not approve.
Yes, I thought Tina Brown's article was sickening, worse than the photos. But I thought it was very revealing about what Tina Brown wishes her *own* life were like.
ReplyDeleteAw, don't fret. I'm perfectly fine with it.
