Britney Was Raped/Was Britney Raped?

Posted by HerBadMother

 

The headline on the latest issue of InTouch Weekly: WAS BRITNEY RAPED? Which, you know, is just a little bit horrifyingly provocative. 

There's no word yet on what the basis for the story is (rumors were floating around last month about the possibility that Britney was raped 'at a club' and that this was why she shaved her head, but those rumors didn't go anywhere - until now?) but some people are already up in arms over the headline itself. Are you ready for this? Perez Hilton is outraged that InTouch Weekly would publish such a gruesomely titillating headline unless it were certain - CERTAIN - that it were true:

This is so gross!!!

Why do these rags insist on doing shit like this????

In Touch put Britney on their new cover with an attention-grabbing headline that reads, "Was Britney Raped?

WTF???

Why put in the question mark there?????

They should either know she was or wasn't. Why put this story out there if it wasn't true or if they had doubts about its authenticity?????

Oh, wait, we know why.

They wanna sell magazines!!!!

So disgusting.

We don't wanna question marks in covers! We want to know that what we're reading is FACT!

Somebody please tell me that he's being ironic here. Otherwise - fat gossipmonging pot? MEET KETTLE.
