December 21, 2007 -- THE feud inside the New York Times over a provocative photo of a semi-nude, underage fashion model intensified this week after Times Magazine Editor Gerald Marzorati fired off a missive defending the photo.

The picture in question appeared in the Holiday issue of the glitzy fashion insert T, which came out Dec. 2, and features a soft-focus side-shot glimpse of 17-year-old model Ali Michael, and her exposed left breast.

Skinny,half-nude anorexic kid, posing as High Fashion with the NYT defending the pics. The parents should be dealt with by shoving the Sunday Magazine up where the sun don't shine.

Rules....

[Spruce]

All the ‘fashion’ designers are homos, so they like their ‘women’ to look like 13 year-old boys.

[Vision]

Perverts.

[popdonnelly]

It’s all exploitation.

[squarebarb]

But these are the elites and the world revolves around them and whatever they want.

You buck-toothed peasant. /sarc.

[wastedyears]

That is absolutely and completely disgusting.

Anything to shore up sagging circulation figures, eh?

If you can get a hand free you can click on the link, but it’s not worth the trouble.

Designers look for models with the following criteria: The thigh must be the same diameter as the calf. The upper arm must be the same diameter as the wrist. These dimensions are used by doctors to diagnose anorexia.

Wardrobe malfunction?

No connection in the 16 year Spears getting knocked up. We know that the filth MSM trowels out has no consequences.

Sarcasm off.

What do they say about shoulder blades sticking out. heck for all we know what they claim is her breast is actually her ribcage sticking out

[wastedyears]

Not attractive to me. I’d prefer 19 to 23. I’m only 22 but I don’t find young teenagers attractive. They’re like 5’2” and 80lbs. I’m a small-frame guy myself, but twigs just aren’t attractive.

[ChocChipCookie]

Maybe it’s just me, but now all the trendy clothes for guys seem very “gay”.

[goodwithagun]

I don’t know about the shoulder blades, but the arm and leg diameters are used by doctors.

[antiRepublicrat]

Oh HELL no! Ain’t gonna happen with my daughters.

[Da Coyote]

Hey, it’s the NYT. They define the standards. Easy to do when they have none.

The proper term is metrosexual. My husband refuses to dress trendy. He still wears his Wranglers and Carharts.
