As part of the promotional push for the film Muppets Most Wanted, USA Today's website added an image of a smiling Constantine to their logo on March 21, 2014, the date of the movie's US release. Clicking on the frog's face launched a video clip of Constantine answering the "USA Today Life Five Questions"."Meet Constantine: The new, totally evil Muppet", USA Today online. March 20, 2014. A transcript follows. 
Constantine: Come on, look at these guns! Look at them! Mmm! Mmm hm! See me flexing?
Question: Do you think there is a resemblance betwen you and Kermit?
Constantine: I see no resemblance between myself and Kyermit the Frog. We have very different personalities, and very different looking faces, and everything.
Question: What martial arts have you perfected?
Constantine: I know kung fu. I know, uh... beef with broccoli. I know, uh, this move -- hyaa! -- which I don't know what it's called. 
Question: Why do you think people love Russian villains?
Constantine: Because we are so enigmatic to watch on film. And we have funny way of talking. 
Question: Who do you want your next co-star to be?
Constantine: I am open for any kind of things. You know what I think, it would be good to be in a very serious role, maybe with Meryl Streep, or perhaps Daniel Day-Lewis, or, uh, you know, uh -- Robin William? (sic)
Question: Would Justin Bieber be able to survive a Russian Gulag?
Constantine: Well, it is very difficult to survive in Russian gulag. You really have to know yourself. You really have to make big moves early on, to prove your worth. That is what I would do... if I were in Russian gulag.

In the original 1993 edition, the paper actually includes an August 7-9, 1992 date. Headlines mention the likes of Shaquille O'Neal, Clint Eastwood, and Jay Leno. Later re-issues removed the date and replaced the sports/movie headlines with generic graphics. However, actual text, referencing George H. W. Bush and the Rodney King trial, remained unchanged.
