The savages here are the editors for showing that pic.
For every person angry about the killer, there were about five people angry at the New York Post for printing a picture of the victim.
No mention of the dummying-up of witnesses yesterday, no mention of the way no one will help the cops get to the bottom of this and bring the girls killer to justice. Not a smidgen of anger or outrage about that.
No, the problem is that the NY Post prints a picture. The problem is that there were no undercover cops to mix in unobtrusivly with thousands of near-naked kids.
It seems like millions of human beings are just drifting off into an alternative universe.
And Coney Island used to be such a nice place.
That’s what death looks like. She looks at peace, and it seems like such a waste of a life, which it is. There are gorier pictures printed, and even worse things in the ‘black museums’ they used to show soldiers as part of training to fight against terrorists. I don’t think this ranks as the most exploitative picture the New York Post has ever published, but if it offended her family then they’re owed an apology for compounding their grief.
I was really shocked they published that photo.
They printed another one, over 25 years ago, right on the front page.
There was a mob rub out, someone in the wilds of brooklyn. They had a pic on the front page of the blood drenched windshield of the car. The bodies were still inside.
A lovely sight as I was on my way to work that AM.
I like the Post, but it is not OK to show that poor girl like that.
I notice that the article keeps pointing out 95 degree heat as if that’s a factor. Big deal, 95 degree in nothing for summer, darn near a relief temp. Good ol’ MSM, always blaming something besides what the problem really is: out of control thugs that need indicting, prosecution and incarceration.
It was those damn, gun totin’ bitter clingers!!...or maybe Methodists.
I believe there is an axiom for photo-journalists, “ Follow the body”.
The picture ,though not so pleasant in being posted to a newspaper will be good to have to help in the conviction of the gangbanger who did the shooting. If they ever catch him, because of course , no one saw a thing.
Brighton Beach used to be a wonderful place where Jewish, Italian and Irish immigrant families would frolick. Now it looks like if anyone lighter than a latte showed up they wouldn’t last long.
