So, here’s Rolling Stone magazine’s rationale for putting the photograph of a suspected terrorist on the cover its latest issue.<\/p>\n

Dzokhar Tsarnaev is roughly the same age as the magazine’s major audience, the argument goes. Therefore, it is instructive for Rolling Stone’s readers to understand why one of their peers allegedly detonated two bombs at the Boston Marathon on April 15, killing three individuals and injuring dozens more.<\/p>\n

Do you believe that? Neither do I.<\/p>\n

You see, from I understand about the article, it doesn’t reveal anything that hasn’t already been reported about Tsarnaev and his late older brother, who was killed during the pursuit after the bombing.<\/p>\n

No, it appears now more than ever that Rolling Stone’s editors were interested chiefly in selling magazines, no matter what.<\/p>\n

I’ll stand once again behind those who have criticized the magazine editors for making an atrocious judgment call. They have glorified a suspected terrorist beyond any reason.<\/p>\n
