Cosmopolitan’ calls the Kardashians, not the Obamas, ‘America’s First Family,’

[Liberal_in_LA]

Last night, Cosmopolitan unveiled their November issue with the Kadarshian-Jenner women calling them, “America’s First Family”, and many were not pleased.
To some on social media, the cover, which features sisters Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, Kendall and Kylie Jenner and mom Kris Jenner, and not the Obamas, was a disrespectful act towards the real First Family.

According to USA Today, the magazine emailed in a statement, “We are teasing!” Spokeswoman Lauren Demitry also wrote, “”They are a huge cultural phenomenon. What we do know is there is nothing like the cover of a magazine to provoke a national conversation.”

Yet, this was was not the first time the magazine was criticized for its disrespect of Black people. In April, the magazine’s “Beauty Trends That Need to Die in 2015” only showcased Black women for out going fashion trends, but captioned “R.I.P”, while their white counterparts were labeled, “Hello, Gorgeous”.

1. Well Hillary did mention that Kim is inspirational not long ago..

2. The cover also has the words 'epic ass' on it so

that pretty much covers how important they are in the grand scheme of things...not so much. Same with the Kardasians.

6. Cosmo has never been my cup of tea

because fashion, trendiness, and dieting nonsense have never appealed to me. Yet I see copies of it in waiting rooms everywhere so somebody must read it/look at the pictures.

I suppose to their audience, the Obamas are old and stodgy and they wish we picked presidents for their looks, alone.

I'm no longer outraged at such people. They just make me tired.

7. Shows the decadence of society when

SoCial media and fake idols are the most admired. It is the most stupid thing I read all day today. And to think we have a truly, wonderful loving, respectful first family in the White House , cosmopolitan decides that this classless clan is america's first. Yuck!!!

We are truly seeing the end of days
Feel like vomiting
