Bristol Palin & Her Baby Covers People Magazine

People Magazine surprises us all with a cover featuring Bristol Palin and her baby.

The Governor’s daughter talks about her life with the baby without Tripp, the baby’s father and fame whore.

On the cover, the born again abstinence supporter says, “If girls realized the consequences of sex, nobody would be having sex.  Trust me, Nobody.”

I wonder what her baby will think about this cover years from now?

Meanwhile, Jon & Kate are back on the cover of People battling behind the scenes of their show Jon & Kate Plus 8 and Brooke Shields’ mom controversy earned itself a chip.

A strong week for People?

What a picture!  How did they convince Bristol to pose in her graduation gown with her baby?  That picture tells the entire story.

And, it was a smart move by the magazine to make Bristol’s name prominent in the headline for those that don’t immediately recognize her face.  Without her name, this could be seen as a teen pregnancy story with an unknown teen mom.

The quote in the dek will send this baby to therapy for years to come.  It’s just a shame that Bristol didn’t think about this before saying it to a national magazine.

Bottom Line: Strong picture and smart headline make this another winner for People Magazine on the newsstands.
