Chopsticks and nitwits

Seriously sometimes I think The Star's editors (with the exception of my Auntie Mei Shen) have, as my father would say "rocks in their head". Today they managed to print an article about the hypocrisy of fashion designers who claim to be inspired by women's "power, confidence or intelligence" but "send bony zombies down the runway" right after one about Donatella Versace, which featured several photos exemplifying said emaciated models. (Linked to Givhan's article on Washington Post site since I can't find it on The Star's site.

Not only that, a few pages later there was an article about eating disorders.

I really hope that was meant to be irony, but harbour the apprehension that it's just a case of the person responsible being either a)careless or b)as dumb as a post.
