Petition Created To Encourage Rolling Stone To Donate Profits From Their Boston Bomber Cover To Boston Victims

Rolling Stone magazine created a ton of controversy last week when they revealed the cover of their August issue, featuring Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev looking like a young rock star. Many felt in glorified the actions of the alleged terrorist, and have since sought out petitions (some successfully) to ban the magazine from various stores. Now it’s gone even further, and Jack Osbourne has created a petition on Change.org to urge the mag to donate all profits made from the current edition’s sale (retail and advertising revenue) to the victims, surviving family members and first responders adversely affected by the Boston Marathon bombings. The petition has generated more than 25,000 signatures in quite a short period of time. Let’s see if Rolling Stone responds. Do you think this is a good idea?

Dick Clark’s Former Frat Is Using The $1 Million He Donated For What?!

Yesterday, Dick Clark’s estate donated $1 million to his former college frat, Delta Kappa Epsilon at Syracuse University. Dick has always been quite generous to his DKE family, in fact, and even bought the very house that they reside in on campus now. For that reason, the guys have revealed that the major donation will be used toward fixing the home, which they say is in desperate need of repair. “It wouldn’t mean a lot if we blew all the money on parties because no future classes be able to appreciate it,” a rep for the frat said. Damn. A Project X style party would have been pretty dope, no? LOL!
