Why Losing Your Mind Over the Rolling Stone Cover is Total Horseshit


That's all.

One other thing: Enough complaining about how the cover makes him look like a rock star. The whole point of the Rolling Stone article is to document the progression of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev from young Chechen immigrant to terroristic madman. This means looking at him like a human being without actually empathizing with him. For weeks after the bombing, many of us (myself included) were bombarded with details of the plot itself, all the while wondering, "Why? Why did they do it?" The article attempts to answer that. Hence, after months of pictures like this (and yes, I know these specific images came out today, but you know what I mean), we get one where he looks like a normal person.

WIth that said, Rolling Stone is still garbage. Carry on.
