Save the World by Shopping!

In the Winter 2007 issue of Bitch magazine, there is a great article on celebrity philantropy and the cause advertising hype. One point the author makes is how advertisers today give us the impression that we can end hunger, stop poverty and even find a cure for AIDS by buying whatever bracelet, scarf or other gizmo they want to sell us.

Scans of the article can be found here:
1st page
2nd & 3rd pages (this scan is kinda small... try downloading it and zooming in on it)
4th page.
