Many critics are calling this issue a "stroke of genius" and "an example of print well done," including magazine expert Samir Husni.<br /><br />Newsweek came out with its controversial copy and image combo just a few days later, with similar results. The cover featured a tight shot of President Obama with a rainbow-colored halo above his head.<br /><br />Newsweek discussed Obama's "evolution" when it came to his support of same-sex marriage. It also raised the question of whether or not controversy overpowers quality.<br /><br />Did you see the Time breastfeeding or Newsweek gay president covers?
