Two weeks ago we posted the new Vogue magazine cover featuring basketball star LeBron James and supermodel Gisele Bundchen. There are several in the media who are now saying the cover is racist and is a take on the ‘racist’ image of King Kong holding damsel Ann Darrow in distress (see larger images below).

ESPN writer Jemele Hill was one of the first to mention this in her article, “LeBron Should Be More Careful With His Image”, which you can read by clicking the title.

I mentioned this cover being a bit suspect back in this March 13th post.
