"You Can't Miss"

There is a great article and food for thought in this months editon of Columbia Journalism Review. Check out page 28-29. The story has to do with the state of the Miami Herald, but I thought the most interesting thing was the photo of Arthur Teele after he had committed suicide in a bank lobby. A photographer captured this and it maked for great discussion about te question of whether to run a photo or not. The Herald went with this photo. but I think in black and white. This CJR has ran it huge and in color. It is a pretty gruesome image and I could see where it would offend lots of people. Even journalists reading this magazine. There is blood and the images of this man shooting himself in the head that are not very pleasant. Check the photo out and read the story and maybe people would like to respond???
