Tomorrow's cover: Kim Kardashian visits the White House to discuss prison reform with President Trump https://t.co/1N3bNkVmK7 pic.twitter.com/yPaL93Tyhe — New York Post (@nypost) May 30, 2018

Kardashian was at the White House to discuss prison reform with the president. She was reported to be ready to ask the president about a move to pardon Alice Marie Johnson, a 62-year-old great-grandmother who is serving a life sentence for a nonviolent drug offense.

New York Post publisher and CEO Jesse Angelo took a victory lap for the cover on social media on Wednesday night after the cover was released on the Post's official Twitter account.

H/t to the awesome newsroom team. Also - you’re welcome, Internet. https://t.co/p4vwtnodBz — Jesse Angelo (@jessemangelo) May 31, 2018

But a number of media outlets were not amused, including HuffPost and Mashable. Some media members and celebrities called the cover "disgusting," "mean-spirited" and "sexist."

This seems very mean spirited against someone who was just trying to advocate for criminal justice reform https://t.co/Cr7hG5iOAX — Saagar Enjeti (@esaagar) May 30, 2018

Disgusting headline, @nypost. @KimKardashian was meeting with President Trump about a critical issue and you lead with her ass?



This is unacceptable sexism. No woman deserves this.



Thank you for using your platform to raise awareness for the issue of prison reform, Kim. https://t.co/P43Vq2mPLR — Alyssa Milano (@Alyssa_Milano) May 31, 2018

This cover is sexist and pathetic. Do better @nypost. https://t.co/RxJcm8K34s — Brian Kosciesza (@BrianKosh) May 31, 2018

This looks like the New York Post asked a high school journalism class to come up with the most ridiculous puns for their cover pic.twitter.com/2EqwpfYnC9 — Josh Jordan (@NumbersMuncher) May 31, 2018

A Mashable review of the cover called it "Wildy sexist" and noted Kardashian is a "businesswoman" and "mogul."

"Kim Kardashian is a businesswoman, reality television star, beauty mogul, and all-round pop culture icon. But, the New York Post chose to describe the woman at the helm of a multi-million dollar empire as 'Kim Thong Un' on its heinous front cover," reads the review.

The Post, Trump's hometown newspaper, has featured some infamous headlines over the years and even published a book, "Headless Body in Topless Bar: The Best Headlines from America's Favorite Newspaper" in 2008.

Kardashian became one of the biggest reality stars on cable via her "Keeping up with the Kardashians" program focusing on her family's trials and tribulations that launched on E! in 2007. She married rapper Kanye West, a staunch supporter of President Trump, in 2014.
