On purpose?

Today’s issue of Quick featured a questionable spread on pages 10-11.

On page 10, there’s a story about the funerals of the Amish girls who were recently killed. Directly across from it on page 11 is an ad for Amish Furniture Showcase, featuring “quality, Amish-made solid wood furniture.”

I’m not sure if Amish Furniture Showcase always advertises in Quick. Maybe they do, and the newspaper purposely (or ignorantly) placed the ad next to the story, or maybe they’ve starting advertising more to get in on all the recent Amish attention.

Probably no one else noticed the story and ad placement, because readers were probably entranced by the huge, phallic corny dog ad under the gay marriage story on the same page.
