    You ain't kidding. Who in the SI swimsuit issue demo wants to see Kayne's front?
     
  2. this is obviously what si calls being provocative... they wanted to have their TO-Desperate Housewife moment (the kanye-white woman-butt-holding picture) and now they're reduced to starting a rumor on a blog.

    this is highly embarrassing.

    IMO, Jason they are just using the Beyonce/model issue to cloud the waters over the Kanye ass pictures. SI thought they could create another TO situation by having Kanye groping a white models ass, and when that didn't materialize they try to start a commotion by leaking stories to the blogs. pathetic

    Whit...don't bite. D_B is spewing crap. He's the same gentleman who claimed he had it on good authority that Clint Eastwood had died.

    As someone sitting at the SI offices at the moment, this post is fantastic.

    More like fantastical.

    For the record SI doesn’t have a mailroom (Time-Inc, our publisher, has a giant Mail Center in the sub-basement of the Time-Life Building that services all the magazines.) SI does have three floors of individual mailboxes. The mailboxes are located in a pantry. So possible sources inside the "SI mailroom" could be a coffeemaker, a pair of vending machines or a water cooler. Perhaps one of the Styrofoam cups is the source.

    Hey D_B...care to reveal your "sources" now?

    Never trust Styrofoam.

    The call center would be the most logical place.
