Tina Brown, editor of
Newsweek, clearly doesn't learn from her mistakes. I thought she had reached an all-time low when she ran an undead Princess Diana photoshopped walking in the street alongside Kate Middleton. Now Brown is running a hideously unflattering
cover of Michele Bachmann, which actually says more about Brown than it does about Bachmann. Brown's online publication
The Beast, which was merged with
Newsweek, is the most aptly named publication of all time, even if the name was derived from the Evelyn Waugh novel,
Scoop. These grotesque covers draw news coverage, but for a once-reputable publication like
Newsweek, such coverage is pure poison.
