I saw this on foxnews.com yesterday( link ). According to the article:
Us Weekly publisher Jann Wenner is an outspoken supporter of Barack Obama and the Democratic Party.
Wenner, the magazine’s publisher, has given $130,308 to Democratic causes and candidates since 1993 — and only $3,500 to Republicans, according to records. Wenner also runs Men’s Journal magazine and Rolling Stone magazine. In March, Rolling Stone featured a glowing endorsement of Obama, “Barack Obama: A New Hope,” on its cover.
I guess it's no surprise to see such an article on this magazine. But this is what disturbs me the most about the artcle:
and is a blatant attempt to influence the votes of the magazine’s 12 million mostly female readers.
If such an article, obviously written by a person who supports Obama, can somehow convince any of the "12 million mostly female readers" to vote for Obama, than it's no wonder we have such poor choices for candidates this time around, not that we had the best choices 4 and 8 years ago either. It's sad when things such as these magazine covers can be deciding factors for people when chosing the leader of this nation. What's the point of free thinking when some would rather be told what to do.
