Slate Mag. Gives Props To Che

By AEKowalski - Posted on June 10th, 2008

In case anyone has noticed, it's Che Guevara's birthday today [according to Slate]. And Slate Magazine is celebrating it. Most of the birthday pictures are flattering and romantic. Why does American Express sponsor anything with Slate when they celebrate Che Guevara's birthday on their homepage, complete with a romantic homily to Che Guevara?

[Update: Actually his birthday is June 14. Slate is really building up to the party by celebrating it a few days in advance.]

Ridiculous yes - but all too predictable.

It would have been remarkable had Slate not given props to Castro's thug.
