The New Yorker has declined over the years.The cartoon cover is aimed at satirizing critics of Obama,but the image may backfire on its creators.It is sopho,oric in any event.Why is a “fist bump” of any significance?We have energy,finance,nuclear confrontation,terrorism,immigration, food price issues.etc….and a fist bump gets noticed?It is a Maury Povitch world after all.
