The New York Post prompted outrage Wednesday after publishing a front page photograph of slain photojournalist James Foley seconds before he was beheaded by a Islamic State militant.

Can’t handle the truth....
BFD
That (and more) should be plastered onto America’s Post Toasties. Americans need to face up to the existential threat that it radical militant islam.
Now.
Imagine a US newspaper broke the story of Nazi concentration camps complete with pictures before the war ended.
Would the outrage been directed against the newspaper ?
Next thing you know people will start thinking all this has something to do with Islam.
All part and parcel to set zero up as a "wartime president" leading the dem's to "do something". Bank on zero doing something monumentally stupid with our troops as the mid-terms draw closer.
Needs to wake up these stupid people that don’t pay attention.
Disagree. It sums up what we are up against with this enemy. More people ‘get it’ fast, the better.
Meanwhile public libraries display fake paintings “recreating” the death of St. Trayvon without outrage from the Left.
Yes.
I am not going to, and have not watched the videos.
But this image is not graphic. It is prior to his beheading and shows the murderer with the knife at his throat before any cutting has taken place.
This is appropriate and, in my opinion, important.
It illustrates what happened, which is important for thengenral populace to understand, but is not graphically bloody or gory because it is prior to Foley being beheaded.
Radical Moslems SOP on display for all to see.
Yes publishing that is what is disgraceful. Not the actual act. Guess what they will spend more time condemning...
Evil must be seen for what it is. The MSM sanatized 9/11.
All the Muslims complaining??
Being that it’s New York I assumed they are more outraged that it makes Islam look bad.
Muslims and Muslim sympathizers.
Let me tell you, I saw that cover and I was just grateful it wasn’t the picture someone posted here of his headless body.
I still remember the time they printed the picture of the mob hit that took place out in Brooklyn. No bodies or anything, but the blood spattering, bullet holed windshield of the car the 2 guys were sitting in when they got rubbed out.
Pretty gruesome thing to see on your way to the subway at 8 am.
“NY Post Provokes Outrage With ‘Extremely Graphic’ & ‘Disgraceful’ James Foley Cover: ‘Disgusting Decision’”
If they are too cowardly to even look at a picture of our enemies how will they ever get the courage to defend America.
All that I have to say about this, is if anyone defames this man, you are heartless. This man was brave to the end of his life. If this doesn’t make a person stop to think, nothing will change their thinking. The article also points out how Obama laughs it up with his friends while on the golf course.
