You did this to yourself, Time

Certain media outlets, however, were more interested in her “baby bump.” This is about as obnoxious as it gets.

The usual suspects in entertainment media focused on the glamour portion of her visit, and that’s to be expected from the ET crowd, especially considering she’s married to actor George Clooney. Time, on the other hand, doesn’t have that excuse.

Yes, Amal Clooney is married to a failed Batman. Yes, they’re having twins. And yes, these details about her personal life are completely irrelevant to the point of her U.N. address.

“I am speaking to you, the Iraqi government, and to you, U.N. member states, when I ask: Why? Why has nothing been done?” she asked world leaders. “Don’t let ISIS get away with genocide.”

“Justice is what the victims want” Clooney, who represents victims of ISIS rapes and kidnappings, said, adding, “but justice will be forever out of reach if we allow the evidence to disappear, if mass graves are not protected, if medical evidence is lost, if witnesses can no longer be traced.”

She said, “Killing ISIS on the battlefield is not enough. We must kill the idea behind ISIS by exposing the brutality and bringing individual criminals to justice.”

Clooney criticized world leaders for their slow response to the Islamic State, noting that nothing has happened in the six months since she first started asking for justice for the victims she represents.

“[M]ass graves in Iraq still lie unprotected and un-exhumed,” she said. “Witnesses are fleeing. And there is still not one ISIS militant who has faced trial for international crimes anywhere in the world.”

Celebrity gossip magazines ignored almost all of this in favor of coverage of the fact that she dresses well and will someday birth famous babies.

“Amal Clooney Shows Baby Bump in What Could be the Ultimate International Women’s Day Poster,” read an E! News headline.

A Hollywood Life story bore the title, “Amal Clooney Puts Her Growing Baby Bump on Display In Chic Yellow Dress for U.N. Speech.”

People magazine ran a story titled, “Amal Clooney Rocks the Baby Bump on International Women’s Day Ahead of U.N. Speech.”

This kind of fluff coverage is expected from these media groups. They write about celebrities, celebrity relationship, clothes and other inconsequential things involving famous people.

What doesn’t make any sense is that Motto, which Time Inc. launched last year in an effort to cater to young female readers, re-published the People magazine story. Motto is not the same thing as Time’s main page, but when Time tweeted the story from its official twitter account, they got a deserved earful.

Time is a regarded as a serious news brand. People expect serious coverage from them. Though Time didn’t write the baby bump story, and it wasn’t posted to its main page, the pushback is not that surprising. The purpose of Clooney’s visit is not trivial, and to cover it from the baby bump angle is a major disservice to just about everyone involved.

The headline at Motto has been updated so that it now reads, “Amal Clooney Addresses United Nations on ISIS.” However, because Time didn’t write the story, Time also hasn’t changed the story.

The re-published article is still about what Amal Clooney wore when she represented rape and kidnapping victims before the United Nations.
