Rolling Stone magazine defends Boston bombing suspect cover

[Elano The One And Only]

US music magazine has received criticism for printing cover of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Our hearts go out to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, and our thoughts are always with them and their families. The cover story we are publishing this week falls within the traditions of journalism and Rolling Stone’s long-standing commitment to serious and thoughtful coverage of the most important political and cultural issues of our day. The fact that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is young, and in the same age group as many of our readers, makes it all the more important for us to examine the complexities of this issue and gain a more complete understanding of how a tragedy like this happens. –THE EDITORS

lol. The thing is, there are still a lot of Americans that believe those 2 kids were the bombers. There really is no hope if they can't see through the media BS. Like Malcolm X said, the media is a powerful weapon

In the next 10 years, if you don't agree with the government, or you even so much as question the government's decisions, you'll be deemed a terrorist. It will soon replace the word criminal

On flights in Europe, they hate laptops and phones on take off's and landing. Magazines are what get the customers through a short haul flight
