Interestingly on the very same day, the front page of the National Post... Canada's most conservative national daily newspaper used the same image... the only difference is the image was cropped. It was cropped so it was a close up of *just* the floating body and nothing else.
I tend to agree with those above who argue that we don't need to know what is happening elsewhere in the world. I much prefer local news that has some bearing on my life. This is not to say that a news paper or TV news shouldn't post images of this nature just that I like having the choice to *not* read it (if that makes sense).
As for graphic images... I would rather they were inside the paper than on the outside. This way, those who don't wish to see the graphic images, don't have to as they wander by a newstand or past the news box. Put them inside and in full colour.
