Props To Time Mag
In their Ann Coulter edition (and yes, that was an awful cover photo, and I don't think it's an accident), they mistook Communists For Kerry and the Protest Warriors for real anti-right-wing groups protesting Ann. Maybe the protesters were a little too "nuanced" for them.
They've since fixed it though. Rather than just putting it down the memory hole, they've since changed the caption of the picture to reflect reality, and noted their original error. That's refreshing, and when they do something right, we should encourage them.
It does make you question their savvy, though. Weren't the jokes obvious, or did they look too much like signs that moonbats would actually carry? I like the "Criminals for Gun Control," myself.

They probably think "Gun Control means using BOTH HANDS" stickers are anti-gun folk.

Just like they mistake your satire for actual stories. Fact checking seems out of vogue.
