"Is that cover supposed to help?"

The cover is an obvious (and cheap) attempt to use sex in making them appear as victims. I quit asking myself, "How much lower can they go?" It is absurd, but it seems they'll continue to stoop down into a botomless pit.

Iam calling em out. That Photo is as fake as the opoligy.
There is NO way in Hell, that the photo on the front of Entertainment Weekly is a original of Natalie Maines.

No Way in Hell. She is a Porker, and there isn't even a gut line in that photo. Photoshop is Natalies friend in this picture. Look at the picture directly under in in this thread. Of course, I wouldn't want to see the original.

No, this will be the new modus operandi for public figures when their public comments are called into question. Say something on public policy that creates an uproar, make a few additional public comments in defense of your original comment, do an interview in a national publication with a nude cover photo to solidify the gravitas of your original comment in the public's mind.

I understand Sen. Santorum is planning an interview with a nude cover for Newsweek and Time next week.
