I don't know - looks like they are about par for the course. If the issue is "rich white guys" (RWG) on the cover that seems to be what a majority of their covers are.
Look at their last 13 issues (including current) - they feature 15 RWG and 14 "others". But it has to be noted that 7 of those 14 are on a single cover and that 1 of the others is an "incidental" background actor.
I also find it interesting that of the 14 "others" there are only 2 men.
So while the numbers are relatively even the real story is that month-to-month the typical cover solely features one or more RWG's.
This says more about diversity at the executive management level than anything else.
