Taliban vs. Annie Leibovitz

· Tuesday, September 26, 2006 · 4 comments

Carolyn O’Hara notices (via Wonkette) something odd about this week’s editions of Newsweek magazine:

All editions save the U.S. variant (i.e., the primary one) put the story of the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan on the cover. What knocks it off in America? A photo essay profile of Annie Leibovitz entitled “My Life in Pictures.”

Hmmm.

    Does Leibovitz have a new book coming out?

    By golly, she does.

    That answers that.

    This is just one more example of the liberal media trying at all costs to embarrass Bush, particularly before November. Just like the NYT holding that wiretap story till after the 04 election. Damn the liberal media!
