Hat tip to Dangerous Minds.
This was supposed to be a real magazine, created by a band of young hipsters including "Middle-aged Fox News reporters and former Family Research Council and Heritage Foundation employees!" But I now find that links from Dangerous Minds to "The Conservative Teen" Web site that worked for me a few days ago are all either dead or are diverted to the Texas SPCA. Maybe some typical deadbeat conservative moochers neglected to pay their hosting fees...
[Edit: I should have mentioned this at first. I altered the following graphic by changing much of the text. Original at link above.]

| If it's not yours or The Onions you both have competition. Come on "How Book-Burning Works p.24" that's to up front and honest, not their work IMO. |

Mine was the changed text, but the original was funny enough. See original cover at the link in the OP. |

Just a few boring technical notes: Changing text on a image from the Web may sound easy, but if it's printed over a background image, it can be a bear to remove the original text and fill in the erased background. Slow work.
Then there's the problem of finding matching fonts. I found that "Rockwell" was the blocky serif font that was the main one I was replacing (the typeface used in "BLUE EYES AND EMPTY BLOND HEADS"). Luckily I had that font, once I finally identified it.
Then, after I'd finished all the text, I had to blur what I'd added, to make it match the look of the parts if the remaining enlarged original text. |
