VANITY FAIR MOCKS NEW YORKER COVER: HA?
Vanity Fair maintains a kind of affectionate rivalry with its downstairs neighbors at The New Yorker and this is how they show their love.
BARACK OBAMA RESPONDS TO NEW YORKER MAGAZINE COVER:
On Larry King Live, Barack Obama said, “I know it was the New Yorker’s attempt at satire. I don’t think they were entirely successful with it. But, you know what, it’s a cartoon Larry. And, that’s why we’ve got the first amendment.
This is actually an insult against Muslim Americans. Something that we don’t spend a lot of time talking about. And sometimes I’ve been derelict in pointing that out. There are wonderful Muslim Americans all across the country doing who are doing wonderful things. And for this to be used as sort of an insult or to raise suspicions about me I think is unfortunate. It’s not what America is all about.”
