The Fallout in Public Response: “Much Ado About Nothing”?
Over at SportsFilter the SpoFites are debating the merit in any racist interpretation of the Vogue cover. Overwhelmingly, the consensus appears to be that this is “much ado about nothing.” LeBron okayed the image. Gisele signed off on it. Which must mean that we’ve got a collective of all-too-sensitive zealots who want to make an issue out of nothing.
Follow the debate. Throw in your two cents. In a day or two I’ll have a follow-up post to help “make sense” of this all from a critical, but realistic, cultural studies point-of-view. Until then … do join in on the discussion, whatever your viewpoint may be.
