Great covershot of Obama on Rolling Stone - great job to the Editors!!!



I highly recommend getting this issue of RS. It's a great article and well worth keeping the magazine. The editors just put Barack on the cover with nothing else but the title and I just love the smile, actually the laugh that he's doing. Makes me wonder what he's thinking about.

Rolling Stone came out for Obama back in March of 2008 and have been doing a great job of reporting on Obama especially his stance in the entertainment field. It's amazing that so many celebrities out there are endorsing them that should help push the young voters.

As for Mccain, he gets his share of coverage in the magazine but usally criticism for his part in the mess our country is in.

Even if you don't subscribe to RS, I would suggest getting a keepsake copy of this Magazine!

1. just read the post about M.Dowd's article about his lack of humor
describing her writing about Obama for Rolling Stone of all places - maybe they'll send her a copy.

3. Ms. Dowd takes the New Yorker flap personally
If she were forbidden to mock people, she'd have nothing to write about.

2. I stopped
reading RS years and years ago when every cover was Britney or some other non-music phenom. Or maybe I'm just getting old.

I don't listen to new pop music at all anymore.

5. Well it's worth the $13/year just for the stuff Matt Trabini writes
He spent 2 weeks at a Jesus camp - that article was fucking hilarious. Yeah, every once in a while they cater to the pop crowd to keep an influx of new readers but Jann Weiner is so on board with getting Obama elected.

6. Seriously. Rolling Stone often gives more in depth stories and analysis than
most mainstream media outlets. I was surprised by the quantity and quality of the political content when I first started subscribing. Definitely check it out.
