Hope from the Grave?

Today's PARADE MAGAZINE supplement to the daily paper features a cover story that may be the biggest screwup in the supplement's patchy history.

Next to a soft-focus photo of Benazir Bhutto, the cover features this copy:

"Is Benazir Bhutto America's best hope against al -Queda?

"'I Am What The Terrorists Most Fear'

"An interview from Pakistan by Gail Sheehy"




The inside interview by the author of "Passages" discusses Bhutto's role in Tuesday's elections in Pakistan.

Parade.com
explains:

"Editor's note: The assassination of Pakistan’s Benazir Bhutto on Dec. 27 occurred after PARADE’s Jan. 6 issue went to press."


Since the magazine is included with a newspaper, perhaps a press date of less than, say, two weeks before distribution might be a good idea?
