  • [Boston Globe] From donuts to keffiyehs–is Rachel Ray destined for trouble with the Israel lobby? Jeffrey Goldberg has this stunt picture of Ray with a “costume change” to “any future Middle East-related wardrobe malfunctions.” Ed Brayton over at Dispatches adds another Photoshop gag. This is just the latest in a series of stories like Urban Outfitters’ anti-war scarf (see here).

And the picture-stone dish rag is pretty much comparable to that.”
