Rolling Stone has incited a firestorm of controversy when they unveiled their newest cover, featuring Boston bombing suspect Jahar Tsarnaev.
People are sickened at seeing a suspected terrorist grace the cover of a high-profile magazine in a way that makes him look like a young rock star, instead of a villain. With this depiction, there seems to be more focus on his appearance and less on his crimes.
With this cover, the public is afraid that Rolling Stone is glamorizing terrorism and may inspire other individuals to commit murderous acts so they can get their 15 minutes of fame.
