I know that I don't have a Drudge-like following here ;-) so am fully-cognizant that any editorial decisions I make on which pictures I post have no measurable effect on how the world operates. But that said...
Shame on the media outlets who insist on showing picture after picture of the VA Tech killer and his video. While one of them might be sufficient, the excessive use of them adds no new information to the reader/viewer.
Furthermore, CNN was running one of the more disturbing ones (assuming that these horrific images can be rank ordered) as their main picture, but right next to it was an item about Sanjaya being voted off of AI last night.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer's print edition this morning was just pathetic.
Here's a cool resource of what daily print editions look like.
