That sound you hear is my jaw hitting the desk as I see the cover below and read the accompanying blog entry:

The folks at Denver Magazine call their September edition “The Men’s Issue,” and no wonder. The two women on the cover are literally busting out of their flirtatious attire, with the girliest of the two wearing a breast-boosting garment that turns her wiggle rack into an awesome blossom. Meanwhile, her more masculine partner is clad in an open shirt from which one mam threatens to escape as she perches spread-legged on a chair and holds a cigar that, with apologies to Sigmund Freud, isn’t just a cigar in this case. As a bonus, the sitting woman has her arm looped suggestively through the crooked leg of her gal pal, whose crotch is at mouth height.

…They’re Libby Weaver and Natalie Tysdal, anchors for programs on Channel 31.

Well. Here at The Bench, I don’t know what to say.

It’s…shocking? Disturbing? Tacky and tasteless? All of the above?

Yes.

God help us.
