The glossy backlash

Yesterday I took a few potshots at the Wired green issue.

Now the glossy backlash continues, with a DailyKos diarist going postal on the Vanity Fair green issue:

Every pathology of the overripe zenith of American hyperconsumerism and narcissism, proudly flaunted in one shiny, garishly overcoloured, borderline-porno, pretty-shiny-toxic package. What an experience.

Bitchy is the new green!
