Deep Rot at Newsweek

Newsweek is playing games with its overseas editions. While the American edition has an innocuous pop-culture cover, the overseas ones are quite different. Check out in particular the Japanese cover. Here's a link to the Riding Sun blog where the covers appear. [Hat tip to Lileks]

The writer's advice to Newsweek: "If I were to offer Newsweek a suggestion, it would be this: Any story or cover you're ashamed to run in America probably shouldn't be used in other countries, either."

Exactly!
