Bachmann's Newsweek Cover

I'm not a fan of hers either, but that cover is freaking ridiculous.

As a friend of mine posted on Facebook, a photo of Michele Bachmann that makes her look crazy is like a photo of Michael Jordan that makes him look tall.

 

That's funny, but I think it's pretty despicable to intentionally use a photo that makes someone look bad. I don't think they'd do that to Mitt Romney, Obama or any of the other male candidates.

Not a coincidence that the person who signed off on using that photo is a female.

If you're using the "Queen of Rage" headline, why not get a photo where she looks mad?

 

They did the same thing to Palin last month.

 

Michele Bachmann looks like that.

Not a fan of the cheesecake Palin covers, though.

 

Come on, the press has done the same thing to President Obama a million times.

Magazines always use the bad photo.

 

The Obama close-up overkill got pretty ridiculous in 2008.

 

1. Covers sell magazines.
2. Magazine creates intriguing cover.
3. What part don't you understand?

 

There once was a time the Neek masthead meant something.

That whole cover is clunky in ways I can't even quantify. Maybe it's the dark blue background or the vertical layering or the teeny-tiny teases. Or maybe I just peed myself after staring into her soul-eating eyes.

 

Bachmann is cross-eyed.

Not much Newsweek can do about that.

 

Dang Obama's aged ... sheesh I can't fathom what goes on in the minds of people (left or right) who actually want that job.
