CONTROVERSY AFTER PEOPLE MAG PICTURES CHELSEA CLINTON IN 'AROUSED' STATE

Editors at TIMEWARNER's PEOPLE magazine found themselves in controversy on Thursday -- after the weekly published a photograph showing former first daughter Chelsea Clinton in an apparent "aroused" state.
Clinton is shown "erect" as she is embraced by her companion Ian Klaus at last week's US OPEN tennis tournament; her face: showing "bedroom pleasures."
Publishing the provocative photograph of the media-shy Clinton is the latest attempt by new PEOPLE editor Martha Nelson to heat up the magazine. The snap is featured near the front of the book in the September 23 edition [Pg.24].
But the controversial shot of Clinton pulled mixed reviews -- even from within the magazine!
"I work here, I found it in very poor taste," a PEOPLE staffer told the DRUDGE REPORT from New York. "Why don't we just run a photograph of his hands down her pants?"
Editors defend the publication, noting Clinton's display was in a public setting.

NO! You didn't just do that! I like Shirley Manson (well, it's Garbage I like -- but I happen to think Manson is pretty) and now whenever I see her I will think of that picture! ;)

Is this the picture you're talking about?
| People Magazine Exclusive: Chelsea Clinton in Aroused State |
Sorry, but I had to insert lettering and wine glasses in strategic spots to avoid embarassment to the Klintoon family.
I'm sure you can appreciate my concern here . . . Top

Is she touching herself?!
Have these people no shame?!
Oh, I forgot, she's a Clinton. Nevermind.
To: PaulJ
And what's that girl doing in the corner of the photo?!
Like father, like daughter I guess.
To: PaulJ
Massive arm flab is the dominant "point" in that picture, in my opinion.

If Hillary is her Mom, why does she have Bill's nose and Webb's lips?
To: PaulJ
That's aroused???? I've seen bigger headlights on a hampster.

Regarding the picture of the "aroused" state, I really don't understand why the liberal media would be aghast at this photo? From the sounds of the article I expected much worse. Sure this isn't appropriate public behavior, but she is what her parents are self-serving (maybe literally!), shallow, inept, the list is endless.
What I'm shocked at is how protective the media is of this ugly young woman. Of course they could be protecting the sales of their magazine by only publishing the beautiful people.

Maybe it was just cold out?

What is it with this fascination over Chelsea Clinton? She didn't ask to be born to the parents she was born to, and to hammer her over her looks (or lack of them) makes everybody here look petty. She really isn't a bad looking young woman, and to say otherwise simply isn't being honest..
