Women's feature magazines have never been a paradigm of journalistic independence, but More magazine has officially shredded any pretext of objectivity towards the White House by inviting first lady Michelle Obama to guest edit its upcoming July/August issue.
More, which bills itself as a magazine "for women of style and substance," invited the first lady to showcase her pet causes and "significant contributions" during her six years at the White House.
"I am excited and honored to be guest editor of More this month and tell you a little bit about the issues I'm working on, as well as the extraordinary Americans I've had the privilege of meeting as first lady," Obama said in a press release about the upcoming issue, which hits newsstands June 23.

"The first lady is the ultimate More woman," says Lesley Jane Seymour, the magazine's editor-in-chief. "She is the perfect combination of passion, intelligence, beauty and glamour, and her gift for moving people to action is the reason I invited her to be our first-ever guest editor."
BTW, the thread title IS the Barf Alert.

Perhaps...
But this actually merits the
“MASSIVE GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR ATOMIC PROJECTILE BARF ALERT.”
Just sayin’
I would think that you would or should be a woman before you could edit a women’s magazine?
This new sexual transgender WTF revolution crap is way out of hand......
I wish these idiots would just go away.
Bruce Jenner would be a better choice.
LOL
Post of the day.
Oh and just for crap and giggles any time I walk in a store and buy something and get to the check out and see a Bruce Gender magazine in a rack I turn it around so the back of the cover is showing!
No one says I have to look at that sh@t!
More magazine is for women who are:
More stupid
More ugly
More ungainly
More stupid
More obnoxious
More stupid
Did I mention more stupid?
I turn the covers around too so many opportunities coming up in election season. Magazines should sell their back cover space to advertisers at premium prices.
The name of this Mag “Monster Butz”!
That would be the kind of magazine they have at the place where I go to get my hair cut.
I can’t believe MO is going to WORK? But she is probably just getting ANOTHER cushy, DO-NOTHING spot and drawing a paycheck for doing NOTHING
Just read her college thesis to see what kind of ‘editor’ she would be!
As one journalist said “It does not appear to be written in any known language”
Here come the payoffs...
I did that dozens of times with Moochie covered mags
What’s the name of the mag—”Mama’s Big Bottom”?
I like More magazine. I’ve liked it in the past for several reasons, one of which is that many men write columns, too. Several years after the fact, I remember 1 man’s story about becoming a 1st time father later in life, another man’s account of how her reached out to her across the abyss of her Alzheimer’s through dance. These are memorable to me. I’ve never had a subscription to More, but it was a magazine I always picked up if I saw it on an end table at a dr’s office or other such venues. Now, I’ll just stick with my phone and give up such formerly pleasurable distractions.
Another phony featherbed job — just like the one at the hospital.
Is it called “More” because you have to have more butt than anyone else in order to qualify as editor?
Would not editing one of those transgender oriented magazines be a lot more appropriate?
