Martha Stewart deleted an Instagram photo showing her Halloween costume: ragged clothes, a dirt-smudged face and a sign asking for food.
Why it matters: The image recirculated on Reddit, where users called the costume "offensive," "gross" and "out of touch."
Where they split: The outlets differ on what the costume depicted: TMZ describes a poor person, while the New York Post frames it as a homeless person and notes Stewart's intent is unclear.
Center coverage, 3 sources: The center treats it as a quick celebrity misstep: a costume post deleted after users objected.
Right coverage, 5 sources: The right frames it as a wealthy celebrity accused of mocking homeless people, set against her history of elaborate costumes.
What’s next: Both outlets say they asked Stewart's representative for comment and had no reply.
