Last year Bloomsbury USA published Justine Larbalestier's Liar, which is about a person of color, and put a white person on the cover. The author and others quite reasonably complained, so they changed the cover and said they wouldn't do it again. They did it again.

Thanx to Justine Larbalestier.

Some people go online to complain that the author, having given the book a cover that lies about the main character's race, ensures that the work is not available in the complainer's preferred format. [livejournal.com profile] cmpriest attempts to reason with them.
