I yield to the impulse to weigh in on the
New Yorker cover, but my point is purely technical, not political or philosophical. I quote
Kevin Drum:
If artist Barry Blitt had some real cojones, he would have drawn the same cover but shown it as a gigantic word bubble coming out of John McCain's mouth — implying, you see, that this is how McCain wants the world to view Obama.
Hm, good point. But why stop here? In the Photoshop age, there is really nothing to stop
somebody else from creating the bubble and slapping the cover inside it, not so? Web 2.0, baby, we are the world. And if you see one, send me a link.
