MAD Magazine's Dumbest 20 of 2002
|
December 30, 2002 - The editors of MAD Magazine, America's foremost experts in dumbness, have chosen Martha Stewart, for her alleged involvement in insider trading and her repeated denials, to top its list of the fifth annual MAD 20, the humor monthly's year-end review of "The Dumbest People, Events and Things of 2002."
In the new issue of MAD, Ms. Stewart is shown smiling and holding a halo over her head on the cover of a renamed Martha Stewart Lying Magazine. Other features include a satiric take on the cover-up in the Catholic Church which depicts Boston's Cardinal Law in a "seeth-no-evil, heareth no-evil, speaketh-no-evil" pose and attorney General John Ashcroft as a snooping Uncle Sam promoting his Orwellian TIPS program.
The MAD 20, a special full-color 21-page section, is featured in the year-end issue #425 of MAD Magazine on sale now at newsstands, bookstores and comic book shops nation-wide.
