    Time and Newsweak (sic) do this from time to time, most famously when both had Bruce Springsteen on the cover.

    When OJ was found not guilty, both tabs had the hedline "HOME FREE" and the identical pic.

    I thought that was one of the newsmagazine covers when he first got arrested. One (Time?) darkened it considerably so he looked more menacing.

    That's what I was thinking of. I don't remember the covers when he was acquitted.

    How do they use the same font and everything, though?

    Confusing. In a rack, from half a block away, they'd look almost identical.

    Well, the Clintons part is in whatever font was used for the Sopranos titles, so, ya know.
