So I agree with you, but I don't know what alternative there is. This article is probably incredibly informative and worth reading.
Maybe put a picture of the bomb site, survivors etc. because the main story is the bombing....not the photogenic little brother.

They did it absolutely on purpose and selected it from alternative choices like those I mentioned above.

It's as tasteful as somebody selling Trayvon Martin costumes this halloween.

Along with the notation you became a monster. But I guess taking a picture out of context is more popular with the feigned outrage crowd, apparently the same bunch of hypocrites who feign outrage over innocents killed in drone attacks but NEVER said word one in outrage over innocents killed by manned bomber attacks.

In a country that embraces HoneyPooPoo, why would anything that happens in the media be surprising?

Ted Nugent at least made some cool music.

I won't read the magazine again, not even if the choice is that or Knitting World at my dentists office.
RS has a long history of controversial covers. It sells.

I hate to break it to you or him but when he starts talking crap like he may run for POTUS, the season is officially open on his private life.
