Redneck vs. Poor Graphics? (archive)

Clearly the staff has the ability to edit out obectional items, whether they be Rebel flags, obectional gestures, whatever. It would apprear that the staff is slipping in more than one area of their photo editing.

Usually most editors take care to at least get their cover right. Notice anything screwed up on the cover?? How about the green, yellow paint and the numbering on the M Coupe that are NOT in the reflection!! Perhaps incompetence is more the order of the day.

The BMW National Club magazine "Roundel" featured an article call "When Pigs Fly". The article was about a BMW being converted into a pickup truck, for what reason I don't know, but what was so troubling to me was that fact that the Roundel editorial/pictorial staff allowed 2 distinct pictures of this vehicle with Confederate Flag License plates to be published. With all the controvercy on this subject last year with the flying of this flag over the state Capital. They may as well feature an article of a BMW, converted into a personal tank with a swastika license plate and Hitler giving the Gestapo salute! I hope this has not become the mentality of the National BMW Club or BMWNA since relocating to South Carolina. What are your thoughts? Email letters@roundel.org & BMW@rlc.net and voice your opinions where they'll count.
