They certainly have the right however it is way too far in my opinion.

I don't see the photo as trying to glamourize the kid. It's the same photo that was also used in the Times at some point.
If they wrote a hard knocking inside story on the kid/tragedy, what are they supposed to put on the cover, Lady Gaga? So I really have no problem with it. I saw someone post this on twitter, is that photo worse/more offensive than this one?

I agree with Hooves, I dont read this publication very often but I totally do not support any type of glamorization of criminals, especially murdurers (albeit innocent until proven guilty).

Freedom of speech but very poor taste.
Happy most places in Massachusetts have refused to put it on the shelves.

Completely idiotic.
Let's send the message that the next nutjob to go off the deep end will get the cover. As beautiful as America is, we really do make some ****d up decisions.

Cover? No. Look, you don't think some idiot was saying something like..."Yea, I bet this causes a big stink and we get lots of extra press" Most likely related to the person who passed along the pilots names! Classless.

Free speech; of course I have the choice of buying it or walking away. Something Obamacare is missing. But sometimes the constitution is right and sometimes it's not. Similar to the bible I guess.
