The raunchier the better!

So how far does Time, Rolling Stone and the rest of the print magazine industry need to go to sell a magazine?

A mother with her breast exposed and her son having a feed, at age 3, is that taking things a bit too far?

Or are we now so accustom to seeing flesh that we need more extreme cover art to attract us to the magazine rack?

How far are our magazine publishers willing to go to sell their rags?

Narain Jashanmal, GM of Jashanmal Books, joins me to look at the issue.

HOT-SPOTS with Elizabeth Monoian

Elizabeth Monoian is an interdisciplinary artist and designer who uses the Internet, found objects and spaces, electronic noise, video, and performance to tease apart and question cultural relationships to time, history, and memory.
