Respect Flipper Redux: Don't Be Stupid, Rolling Stone

Loyal reader James Taylor just pointed out that Rolling Stone reported today on the Flipper t-shirt flap that got me so riled up last week, so I dutifully clicked on over to check it out. Under normal circumstances, I'd just laugh this type of bullshit off, but Rolling Stone, last time I checked, still billed itself as a MUSIC magazine. So you'd think, right, that THEY WOULD AT LEAST KNOW THAT FLIPPER WAS A GODDAMN BAND, and not just a rinky-dink little doddle Kurt scrawled on his t-shirt. To read their take on it, you'd never know that fact.

Shame on you, Rolling Stone.

I noticed that too: I suppose an article with the phrase "Kurt Cobain" in the title will generate more clicks.

I've refused to buy "Rolling Stone" since its dimensions were chopped to "US Weekly" proportions.

Rolling Stone hasn't been a music mag in at least a decade, bro.
