New Yorker's Obama and Michelle Cartoon: Its Offensive
Read here Readers' Comments in Los Angeles Times
The New Yorker magazine has received some backlash for this week's cover, showing Barack Obama dressed as a Muslim in the presidential Oval Office.
In the cartoon Obama is fist-bumping his Afro-wearing wife Michelle, who is outfitted with camouflage and an AK-47 slung over her back.
The controversial cover, obviously meant to satirize false stereotypes of the presidential hopeful, has been accused of being too over-the-top.
Readers called the cover racist and feared Americans would misinterpret the joke as being a legitimate representation of the senator.
