“On Tuesday, the newspaper’s public editor Margaret Sullivan posted a blog in which she admitted that using the mother’s photo was the wrong decision.”
Bullshit! They deliberately chose to picture those they feel sympathy for, terrorists. She is only sorry that they misjudged the outrage it would cause.
My thoughts, exactly.
They chose the picture for a reason. To give sympathy for their true friends. They got caught, and faked the sorrow.
