Controversial Magazine? Sendik's Blocks, Then Unblocks, Cover

Issues of the most recent edition of Milwaukee Magazine with a cover of two women in wedding dresses for an article about the economic impacts of gay marriage in Wisconsin had been covered by a black board at a Brookfield grocery store, according to the magazine.

However, the board has since been removed and the magazine remains on display.

“Other magazines getting the black-board treatment at the grocery store on Capitol Drive included Cosmopolitan’s most recent issue,” Milwaukee Magazine wrote about the incident.

The store may have blocked the magazine after receiving a customer complaint, WISN 12 News is reporting. However, Sendik’s co-owner Jim Balistreri said that he uncovered the  magazine after being contacted about the issue, according to WISN 12 News.

The article that started the controversy can be found on the Milwaukee Magazine website.
