I was always very fond of that Goat on the cover, but the editors thought it was not a good idea. It was for Business Week, a Science Gene Manipulation Cover Story.

History of Islam
This was a sketch for a cover story for Week In Review at the New York Times. The story ended up not running and so the sketch never got to make it to final.

With the Rupert Layout, I was very disappointed. The story was about him having companies everywhere,  I thought you might want to shoot Mr. Murdoch  from every angle, sort of like he has a foot on the ground in almost every county. But they went with a boring color CEO type shot. This is much newsier, matching to his business. It also has that “Wanted” quality, which played the criticism angle of that story.
