I think you underestimate the number of people who read this magazine.

No I'm well aware of the people who read this magazine and that no matter how much they like the magazine, the majority of them get their news from elsewhere.
I fail to see how one more article can affect it. As a civil suit, I don't know that it will go in front of a jury (not sure the rules on that) versus just a judge. And if it does, this is the essence of "jury selection." If you're prejudiced, you're out.
Most people who read the Cosmo article have already seen discussions on TV or read other articles online or in papers. At this point in time, there's probably not much the media could do to change people's minds.
