Two more controversial magazine covers for 2017

When I did my annual roundup of the most controversial magazine covers of 2017 two weeks ago, I hoped there would be no more entries. I was wrong. Two more candidates cropped up.

The Dec. 21 issue of The Envelope magazine of the Los Angeles Times received scathing criticism for not featuring any women of color among a group of six top actresses.

Latina magazine was criticized for using Meghan King Edmonds as its cover model. She stars on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” and is not Latina.
