I have to be honest with you, Dear Reader. When I learned of Fox News’ outrage about Rolling Stone's cover using a photograph of Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, my first reaction was, really? What on this cover is glamorizing him? The headline says that the article is about how radical Islam turned him into a monster - a story Fox would ordinarily love. Oh, the picture makes him look too sympathetic? Well, then maybe Roger Ailes should have a talk with Fox News’ Jesse Watters…
That’s right. Fox Nation editor Watters used the same photo you’re all complaining about to accompany an article in which he linked users to Tsarnaev’s Twitter account. Funny how the picture wasn’t too “sympathetic” then… or maybe posting “sympathetic” pictures of terrorists is yet another IOKIYAR privilege.
