Please compare the two and then tell me they are the same and the Rolling Stone photo is not spruced up. If this scum bag was a rock star and they put the photo as you posted he would probably sue them. Please you can see the difference in the two photos and actually make my point for me. Thanks I guess.

"Rolling Stone knew going in they would get kicked out by retailers," she said.
"What they get here is bigger than what they lose." Rolling Stone, like most U.S. magazines, is subscription-driven. According to ABC (Audit Bureau of Circulations), its newsstand sales are just 75,000 out of a total circulation of over 1.4 million last year. http://www.nbcnews.com/business/bomber-c......10671779 Tom

However the picture did not, and there are a lot of gullible people out there. Because of my stubbornness I will not buy the issue nor read the article. I know kind of hard headed. Does that surprise you? I should think not after all this time.

"Rolling Stone is one of the few magazines still publishing in-depth and long-form investigative articles in the U.S. "This is nothing new to Rolling Stone," he said of the magazine, which won a National Magazine Award for its 1970 prison interview with mass murderer Charles Manson, who was featured on the cover. Two years ago, Rolling Stone's story on Gen. Stanley McChrystal, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, included unflattering comments about Vice President Joe Biden and other White House House officials and led to McChrystal's resignation. "Unfortunately, the public is emotionally driven and this mass hysteria is the biggest threat to journalism," said Husni. "This is not Kim Kardashian, this is a serious mag and journalists cannot be driven by public opinion. You can't allow the public to dictate what journalists do." He said people were comparing the cover photo to Dylan or Morrison or Bono. "That's the problem. The glamorization of the photo shows that people did not read the article."

The Rolling Stone hasn't been published in tabloid format since the early 1970's. Since 1980 it has always been a magazine and, as such, has a cover, not a front page. That's a fact, not an opinion.
Here are the details: Quote:
The printed format has gone through several changes. The first publications in 1967–72, were folded tabloid newspaper format, no staples with black ink text, and a single color highlight that changed each edition. From 1973 on, editions were done on a four-color press with a different newsprint paper size. In 1979, the bar code appeared. In 1980, it became a gloss paper large format 10 x 12 magazine. As of October 30, 2008 edition, Rolling Stone is a smaller, standard-format magazine size. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_stone |

If Wiki says it then it must be a fact
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

But since I've been reading the magazine since 1970, I can personally confirm that those changes in format over the years are accurate. BTW- you are aware that Wikipedia, as a whole, has actually been rated more accurate than the Encyclopedia Britannica. (And it's certainly far more accurate that some of the sources you've cited in support of your conspiracy theories.) |

I didn't read this whole thread much less the article but I have to say "who cares"?
It is a picture of the guy. I am going to place a bet on Rolling Stone not glamorizing this guy. It never ceases to amaze me what outrages people. Rolling Stone has a certain slant to it so automatically condemn them. While this saves time and even money because you avoid having to purchase anything often a salient point or two is missed. Oh well.

Bob1Dog-
You've acknowledged that you've never read the magazine. So your opinion is hardly well founded. (You know that old saying about not judging a book by its cover.) Call it what you like. But perhaps you ought to read it first. Then, perhaps, your opinion might have some weight. That said, the magazine is not a tabloid either in format or substance. Having been in the newspaper business I'm sure you know that it is NOT a tabloid in the literal sense. Having never read it, your conclusion that it engages in tabloid journalism can have no basis. It's just an unfounded opinion. Why not read it first? (You are, after all, a reasonable person.) If, after you've done that, you come to the conclusion that it is tabloid journalism, then we'll have something worth discussing. Good thoughts, Bob PS- Did you get raised to the third degree yet? |
