Airport mainstay Hudson News is treating GQ's naked Brüno cover like porn, according to the Times' Media Decoder blog. "Over the weekend, an operative sent us photos from one of the main Hudson News stores at O’Hare. The newsstand had hidden the July issue of GQ under one of those black panels (a “blinder” in industry lingo) that are typically reserved for the likes of Hustler." They did the same thing for naked Jennifer Aniston back in January. [Media Decoder]
