It was satire and apparently all of MSM missed the point.

Seriously.

Mass media has become tabloidal.

Shock value's one way to boost falling paper/magazine sales...

Who is the woman supposed to be?

Michelle Obama, and the fist pump between them was claimed to be a terrorist act by Fox News.

The New Yorker isn't quite mass media.

Yeah, the point of the piece from what I gathered was to talk about how Obama has been vilified, not to vilify him further. It's a liberal rag so I would have been surprised had they criticized him. But still, I bet his campaign would have preferred they hadn't printed it.

Really bad choice of a cover. It belongs inside the magazine, and it could probably due with a caption. I hate that magazine though, there's way too much terrible poetry and user submitted garbage. A co-worker used to subscribe to it and I always tried to read as much as I could, but it's just really dull to me.

	All I see is a black hole, and sooner or later they’re going to suck each one of us into it. But when they come for me, I'm going to take as many of them with me as I can.
