Now he's a rock star on the cover of Rolling Stone. Disgusting.

 

Those ARE amazing photos, though.

[mtangelsfan]

Yep, I think what RS has done is very immoral and disgusting. 

[Scott34]

Agreed.  I'm glad that a lot of stores are not selling that issue.

Is that orange dot on his forhead a laser tag?

From the caption:

 

"A sniper trains his bead on Tsarnaev."

 

So yeah, pretty intense.

Too bad his finger didn't slip.

 

This guy's going to soak up all the attention at trial. He'll glory in it. In better times they would have taken him out back already and disposed of him.

Man, and by the size of it.  I'm sure that's not one ping.  In the second picture, it looks like a group are still on the forehead, and one drifted to the side of his head a bit.

the cover is pretty tasteless, but not surprising.

 

besides chicks dig murderers.

look at all the female tweets about the NFL guy that capped someone.

The police photographer who released these photos has been "relieved" of his duties!

 

Talk about a BS move

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Amazing photos. This may sound horrible, but I enjoy every bit of anguish he seems to be in.

The little terrorist is no doubt salivating at the prospect of getting up in court and talking some Jihad smack.

 

Too bad that sniper didn't have a little finger spasm at the right time.

Link doesn't work. Also people getting upset about Rolling Stone is hilarious. It almost makes me want to buy 20 copies but I'm cheap.

Selective indignation is as American as apple pie or taco salad.

But then we'd be listening to back-lash similar to how Dorner was "murdered"...

Didn't know about the rolling stone cover; that's a new low.

With that laser tag right on his forehead, I'm surprised he didn't have malicious fecal distribution right there in the boat.

What's the difference between RS and Time magazine putting him on the cover? The way we perceive it? Stupid. The article in that magazine is incredible journalism

Kind of my thoughts as well. I'm pretty sure there have been terrible people on other covers as well. I'd be more concerned with the content. I don't take it as him being glamorized. I also respect their position and duties of journalism. Granted, I don't think I would have used a glamor pic of the dude and made it a cover, but whatever. People don't need to buy it.

 

Was there this kind of outrage when Osama Bin Laden was on magazine covers?

 

Wouldn't be my choice to do what they did, but reading some of the faux outrage earlier today was kind of comical.

[HaloCory22]

Yeah, I have no problem with it. People get way too bent out of shape over so much nowadays.

[Brandon]

Conditioned media control. Someone gets offended, makes some social media update, it picks up steam, the media picks it up and runs to capitalize and profit. The same thing with this crazy Zimmerman case while so many others are killed or acquitted daily but everyone is so invested in this one case because of the media control....you have grown men arguing to extreme lengths here to try and change people's mind on a stance (which will never happen, but they debate anyway).

The Boston bombing was extremely tragic and saddening, but even that was sensationalized to where people were really invested emotionally. Still harboring those feelings with the situation they are upset with a magazine cover.

[Tank]

He's topical and his story is a topical one right now. It doesn't bother me that he's on the cover or that they chose to do a story about him.

I'm a lot more bothered by news channels using pictures of trayvon as a 12 year old instead of a 17 year old.

[TobiasFunke]

Great point on Trayvon, Tank.

I also have no problem with the cover nor the article.

Whenever someone disagrees with a poster, that poster must be "outraged".

 

Some of the stuff people type in here is incredibly stupid.

[LBHalos17]

I can understand RS using that photo, as they have tried to maintain relevance over the years by stirring the pot like this.  They knew exactly what they were doing in the marketing department, but I prefer the SI cover.  It shows some First-Responders (Boston Police Officers) immediately reacting to the incident.

 

It will be an interesting trial...

You must have a reading comprehension problem, sir. I said faux outrage from what I read earlier in the day, I didn't say here or even in the context of posters disagreeing. It was from media and social media sites.

While people indeed write incredibly stuff, people also seem to be incredibly stupid with their comprehension and constantly looking to argue, debate, and fight with other posters for no reason.
