We've Got You Covered 3.12.09

Rush Limbaugh, Bobby Jindal and Kenneth the Page, Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, Jonah Hill, Paul Rudd, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, Bear Grylls, Michelle Obama, and alpacas all made it onto the covers of magazines this week. And that means they made it into 'We've Got You Covered,' Conor Knighton's roundup of those covers. He reads 'em so you don't have to.

We've Got You Covered is a recurring segment on Current TV's weekly television show, infoMania. In each episode of We've Got You Covered, Conor Knighton catches you up on everything you need to know about what's in this week's magazines.

infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Sarah Haskins, Ben Hoffman, and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Times and can be found online at current.com/infomania. And make sure to check out our facebook profile for special features at http://infomaniafacebook.com.

    • furthermore...just so you don't think i am some crazed alpaca farmer, or even a person who would wear fur, though i have heard that alpaca fur, or wool is the warmest available...regardless i totally love the premise of making fun of lame, or super obscure magazine titles and in an indirect way the people who read them...it is funny and i get it...but at the end of the day no matter how obscure you think the magazine title is, or strange the readers must be, at least "they" are original, and at the very least they are intelligent enough to organize, and willing enough to put forth an effort to promulgate their hobby, or passion? and even furthermore...instead of ripping on some random, yet original title...why not pick on one of the thousands of clones out there that basicaly report the exact same thing over and over, post the exact same photos of you know who, probably purchased from the same 4 terrorist photographers, and constantly recycle headline after headline about how to get a guy to be more sensitive, or how to lose 10....14...20 lbs...in 60...30....7 minutes...only under cleverly distinct, but practically identical titles...for instance...cosmo, or vogue, or seventeen, or whoever...who basically only report on who is famous this week, and who isn't? and all too recently whether or not "he is normal down there??"...why not through in people, time, vanity fair, esquire, rollingstone, buzz, blah, groove, boogers...hey let's just demonize media altogether because that hasn't been done before...and no i forgot what i was ranting about...so hooray playboy...and hooray vice...and get your story straight...you are usually spot on.

    • i am just going say boo on you because...the alpaca industry is fairly substantial, and at the very least does warrant some "d level" publication outlining at the very least industry trends, or tradeshows of some kind, and maybe even a section devoted to advertiser or something...not that you are a total jerk, but i do think that you could have dug a little deeper and perhaps found some magazine perhaps more obscure, and less important to any portion of society on any reasonable premise. thank you and i gid bood night.
