At Trumps Golf Club hangs a fake Time Magazine cover that anyone can make using templates. These are usually given as gag gifts. At some carnivals there is a booth where you can make this and other covers using licensed computer software. The WAPO finally discovered this "fake" and went ballistic. The whole media is on this "scandal."
Generally speaking when you make one of these covers you try to add some humor. This cover says “Global Warming. A New Age of Extinction?” Funny? Maybe. But the whole layout reeks of an old template. Above you can compare it to the real cover. No comparison insofar as layout is concerned. And if anything is funny it’s the fact that it took this long for the media to discover it.
