While it is freedom of the press and he hasn’t been convicted (yet) of his crimes, this is still extremely poor taste and they are likely to lose a lot of readership over it. Not only that, but they just glamorized a (alleged) terrorist bomber. Good job RS: You just accomplished more with a single magazine cover photo than the terrorist organizations could have ever dreamed in a lifetime. Great recruiting tool.
I don’t see anyone saying the govmint should keep them from publishing. Of course, I exercise my right not to buy and to criticize their lack of decency.

This is the media. They make big money by drawing ATTENTION, no matter if it is for the right or wrong reasons. So far, it works.

They would rather see this since women don’t interest these guys:Wipe yourselves after you’re done.

A number of my friends were offended by the New Yorker cover. Personally, I thought it was pretty clever. There ought to be room for some humor.

The current cover story is about what turned him into a monster. Maybe they’ll analyze Zimmerman too, or go back and do Tim McVeigh?
