the hanger image seems pretty apt

Whoa there, Huffington Post!

Wow. That’s a real thing a real company with millions of dollars did. That was a decision made by adults. 

I might make, like, 1/100th of what a Huff Po editor makes, but at least I can sleep at night. 

Time did it in 1992. (h/t @Megan) 

Time at least they classed it up a bit. This HuffPo is a stock image of a coat hanger. There’s a difference between sensationalism from a smaller publication who needs the hits and then sensationalism from one of the biggest websites on the internet. I can understand why they did it (because a couple hundred old white dudes are making laws about every woman’s vagina in America in the year 2012) but that doesn’t mean that it was the right thing to do. I dunno.

That’s the sort of thing the editor from Spiderman would do.
