The Cover Stories That Put Mother Jones on the Map

To mark its 50th anniversary, Mother Jones unveiled two distinct covers for different audiences, one for subscribers and another for newsstand readers. The subscriber cover, a celebratory collage by artist Max-o-matic, highlights the magazine's rich history of impactful journalism. This dual approach underscores the publication's enduring commitment to diverse storytelling and its legacy in investigative pieces that have exposed major corporate malfeasance, like the Ford Pinto scandal, and the tobacco industry's deception. This anniversary issue serves as a testament to the magazine's influential role in journalism.
