Faced with such visual competition, Morris tries to keep his text and captions full of breathtaking assertions.

Brooke Shields' full eyebrows and the small noses sported by contemporary male matinee idols both have something to do with the rise of feminism in the West. "The shape of the female navel has changed in recent years," Morris announces...

The unknown criminal, who could face five years...

And the still-boyish 62-year-old carries all the controversy of a Hallmark card—not a smidgen of scandal in 30 years of public life. He is still one of the best-liked, most widely respected leaders of either party. Gephardt could match Vice President Cheney’s stature in a debate, and then beat him with an economic appeal to his fellow middle-class Midwesterners. More than...
