    Rolling stone new magazine cover, cop goes BEAHCAT and releases capture pics

    Yea.....

    Dzhohkar Tsarnaev, the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing, is on the cover of the latest issue of Rolling Stone magazine, along with an accompanying profile of the one-time UMass Dartmouth student who went to high school in Cambridge.

    The cover story, "Jahar's World," reveals that Tsaranev played down his Muslim faith in high school, once told a friend that terrorist attacks could be justified, and may have been willing to surrender during a standoff in Watertown on April 19 because of a plea from a former wrestling coach.

    Tsarnaev, who went to high school at Cambridge Rindge and Latin, is accused of working his brother, Tamerlan, to explode two bombs near the finish of the Boston Marathon on Boylston Street on April 15. Tamerlan Tsarnaev died after a shootout with police in Cambridge the night of April 18.

    The writer of the profile is contributing Rolling Stone editor Janet Reitman. According to an online post about the Tsarnaev profile:

    Reitman spent the last two months interviewing dozens of sources – childhood and high school friends, teachers, neighbors and law enforcement agents, many of whom spoke for the first time about the case – to deliver a riveting and heartbreaking account of how a charming kid with a bright future became a monster.

    Osama Bin Laden, Ted Kaczynski, Saddam Hussain, Timothy McVeigh et al have been on magazine covers. Hell, Charles Manson made the cover of Rolling Stone.

    Honestly, I find it to be in pretty poor taste if they glamorized this guy with a photo shoot and everything for the cover of the magazine.

    The only people that read Rolling Stone are people are that were alive during Woodstock.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    What's annoying about this, is people always want mass murders' names to go away. They don't deserve the attention, and it helps to give others the idea you don't get fame out of doing that shit. And so far it seems like the media has done a fairly good job of that on the boston bombing (even the ct school shooting). These guys have disappeared.

    Now the rolling stone has to be idiotic and bring them back up again? Stupid.

    Actually, it happens all the time. Their 10 minutes of fame, turns into 10 months. Then another couple of additional weeks during the trials, and then some more during the anniversary of the tragedy.

    That fact remains, no one genuinely reads these magazines anymore, and despite that, there will still be an uproar of this shit from said people who don't read.

    It's probably a fascinating article. It's really unfortunate that they chose a photo widely used by the conspiracy lunatics convinced of his innocence.

    I wouldn't care if it was TIME Magazine or Newsweek, you know a news magazine would make sense. But I can't really justify a reason why Rolling Stone, an entertainment magazine, would do it. It is just as silly as if it were done by Sports Illustrated or Entertainment Weekly.

    Rolling stone covers have included Patty Hearst, Charles Manson and Roman Polanski. They also do real news reporting. Did you read the article yet?

    Fuck, RS has had more solid news reporting/investigations by the likes of Matt Taibbi, Michael Hastings, and more.

    It's as valid a "news" magazine as any.

    They're probably one of the most political magazines out there that still has a sizable circulation. I'm just surprised they could squeeze the article in between "50,000 Greatest Bob Dylan Chords" and stupid shit like that.
