.Indeed. Encouraging impressionable kids to emulate someone who'd murder and mutilate innocent people thus gaining cover-boy status, as if putting it on par with acceptable forms of entertainment sends a dangerous message... .AFAIC.

It's their feature story about how he became radicalized. Are they supposed to use a picture of Cheerios? Seriously, there are way more important things to be outraged about. Are we really that shallow?

Gee.. I dunno... did they have to use a glam shot? This would NOT induce me to pick up this rag.
Why not insert this shot on top of the bloody aftermath shot of the blood soaked street.

From what I've heard, the thesis of the article is that the average boy next door who doesn't look terrifying and might be something of a hunk is as liable to become a terrorist as the stereotypical terrorist thug. So the glam shot is probably an intentional part of the article's point.
