Cosmopolitan magazine will now also be telling you who to vote for

Cosmopolitan Magazine now not only covers beautiful clothes, celeb gossip or sex tips, but women will profit from Cosmo’s counsel on how to vote. Starting September 8 and lasting until the US November elections, Cosmopolitan will be endorsing candidates. Women will now stoop to receive their news and views from Cosmopolitan –  a vacuous, insipid, commercialized, hyper-sexualized rag.

The magazine will support candidates who are pro-choice, anti-gun, anti-Voter ID laws, and pro-Obamacare. The magazine will profile and endorse two or three candidates each week leading up to the elections. The mag will be much more political, posing as lifestyle issues for women. 

Cosmopolitan magazine Editor-in-Chief Joanna Coles said  “The biggest single decision which will impact your life is when you have a child. I want women to have control over that, not a bunch of old white guys sitting in D.C. That to me is why I am doing this.” 

Cosmo has made it clear they will only be endorsing pro-choice candidates. They are not going to endorse someone who is pro-life because that’s not in their readers’ best interest.” Really?

The real issues in pro-abortion (pro-choice), anti-gun, anti-voter ID and Obamacare will be addressed in later blogs. ‘Old white guys’ – really? Yes women should have control over when to have a family, and what pro-choice really means is women need the information and consequences to make a choice between life and killing.

So who should decide what’s in the readers’ best interest, the reader or the editor? Does Cosmo think women aren’t intelligent enough to hear both sides and decide for themselves? Are the readers such blank slates that they will dutifully digest any political prattle dished their way? I hope not.

Women should be presented with the facts and to think for themselves, not to just listen to dumb downed airheads writing for Cosmopolitan, but rather legitimate news sources from both sides of the debate.  Cosmopolitan should stick to it’s forte: scrunchies and best outfits to catch HIV and STD’s.

Or has some money passed under the table?

If Cosmopolitan disrespects me by regarding me a vacuous pawn to swallow one sided propaganda

Then I say

Fokjo!
