A poignant cover is gracing the latest issue of New York Magazine.
The faces and names of 35 women who accused comedian Bill Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting them, appear in simple black-and-white photos on the cover of the popular magazine.
The cases allegedly reach back until the 1960s.
One seat is left empty for the unnamed and possibly future accusers, The Washington Post reported.
One woman who said she was assaulted by Cosby told New York Magazine that she felt ashamed after the alleged assault in 1971.
Louisa Moritz said, "I was embarrassed to be me."
Meanwhile one of the most famous women who accused Cosby said she wasn't ready for what happened after she told her story.
According to New York Magazine, Beverly Johnson, one of the first African American supermodels during the 1970s and 1980s said, "The part of it I wasn't prepared for was the onslaught of women that have been assaulted and them telling me their story because I told mine."
But if you don't have a hard-copy of the magazine, good luck reading it Monday.
A self-named hacker has made it difficult to read the article online first-hand.
When readers went to the magazine's website Monday morning, it was not available, not just the article itself, but the entire site.
A self-described hacker called ThreatKing, posting to Twitter as Vikingdom2016, claims he overloaded the publication's servers with traffic, bringing the site to a complete stop. He said the attack isn't due to the Cosby article, but rather the hacker's hatred for New York City. The unnamed hacker has targeted the site, because it shares the city's name, The Daily Dot reported.
A few hours later, the site was back up and readers were able to see the article.
