[Cover composite created by Carlton Swift]
A reader sent in this rendering of our favorite un-retouched Redbook cover photo adorned with the coverlines and fonts of the original July issue, and we're posting it as a little statement. We understand if you're initially repulsed, and you have to click away for a second, perhaps on that charming photo of Nicole Richie in a swimsuit, but we're putting it out there for a reason. As we've discussed previously, this issue of Redbook is chock-full of interesting stories about real people and the lives they lead, and sometimes, once in awhile, real people look as wrinkly and grossly overweight as Faith Hill does in this photo. Think on that, and how maybe we all need to reevaluate our standards for buying women's magazines. Or, you know, stop buying them altogether.
