A Pantheon of Media Gods

My first reaction was OMG, this is hilarious. But then, this is so true.

The designer, Jessie Rauch, is a student at Rhode Island School of Design, and "A Pantheon of Media Gods" is one of many school projects she worked on. The idea is a simple one:
Media celebrities are transformed into Greek Gods as metaphorical commentary on the power that individual pundits and journalists have in controlling access to information and in the shaping of public opinion.
The only thing is, I didn't see Brian Williams... or Jon Stewart for that matter, since Colbert is here.
