In which I give a nuanced analysis of this ridiculous New Yorker cover.

Meanwhile, there are very serious corporate media people on Hardball saying the cover was awesome! And Matthews is telling us that Senator Obama’s rumored background are causing the tight polls.

But sorry, New Yorker, you missed the joke on this one. It happens. It’s just a shame that it happened on this topic, when there’s a crapload of stupid people who are spreading these rumors — ripe for the cartoon picking.

    Every redneck in the Ozarks will have this cover on thier wall as proof that these rumors are true. I know that no one the New Yorker belives this, but they should have used thier heads.

    I’m going to say it again: You SO filched “the Hoo-Sane” from me, Bob Cesca! Filched I says! And it pleases me enormously.For some reason that sounds incredibly gay.

    Every redneck in the Ozarks will have this cover on thier [sic] wall as proof that these rumors are true.AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! An Ozark redneck with access to The New Yorker? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You make me laugh, CMLA! Honey, these people can’t purchase toilet paper that isn’t made out of gopher hide. The cover price of an issue of The New Yorker is $4.50, that’s half a month’s rent to these people! Let’s not get carried away here, people; Yunk’s Eat-N-Shit, the gas station/cafeteria where 78% of last years’ Ozark Newlyweds had their receptions, doesn’t stock The New Yorker; it cuts into rack space for Tits & Carburetors, Roadkill Aficionado and Redneckbook.For more fun see our Brief Pictoral History of West Virginia.

    Doesn’t matter if they stock it or not. Every TV station, cable station, newspaper, etc. has been or will be showing it. Anyone who hears about it and believes it will be talking about it.Monorails & robots for all.

    Hell, the McCain campaign will probably distribute reprints of the cover far and wide.

  • FrictionSoul

    That’s probably what the New Yorker wanted all along: lost of money. Screw ethics, grab that cash with both hands.

    …and did you see that Remnick guy A.K.A. Hair club for Men member? I guess he needed the money to get a good weave.
