Oprah Winfrey, the same host who wouldn’t allow Sarah Palin on her TV show, has now put Michelle Obama’s merry mug on the cover of her monthly magazine.
This is the first time in the magazine’s nine year history that the camera hogging host has allowed anyone to share her cover. But, c’mon, this is Michelle Obama we’re talking about.
The cover, Winfrey said, makes a statement. “Say what you will about books — people do judge a magazine by its cover, which is why it’s important to me keep the cover of this one looking fresh,” she cooed. “And right now nothing — and I mean nothing — is fresher than the family that moved into the White House in January, sparking a national spirit of renewal the likes of which I’ve never seen.”
We think Oprah was misquoted. We think she actually said, “…sparking a national renewal of spending the likes of which I’ve never seen.”
This is the type of story that led to the birth of IHateTheMedia.com. It combines politics, print and television all rolled together in one pretty, prejudiced little package.

You guys are freaking hilarious. I found your site by accident while doing some research about "the chosen one' . Of course I browse late at night, by candlelight with an old blanket thrown over me. This is so the goons from SEIU can't find me (of course the fire department keep threatening to turn me in if I don't quit the blanket and candle thing). But seriously, I love what you have done here. I have gone to every blog I post at and dropped your name and site information (so you really owe me some big bucks) Keep up the good work!!!
Appreciate it! As for owing you a piece of the profit, we better hurry up and calculate it before they take the pennies out of circulation or we won't be able to pay you.
Hope to keep seeing you around.
What impartial pretense? She endorsed Obama during the election, and she's not a journalist.
