MSNBC's Utter Irresponsibility
This photo appeared on the MSNBC website this afternoon. Reportedly it is a photo sent to NBC, and only NBC, by the Virginia Tech murderer. Does anyone else wonder about MSNBC's irresponsibility in publishing it? Do we really want to say to other deranged killers, "Do something like Cho did and we'll publish your photo for the world too?"
UPDATE: I guess I'm on the losing side of this argument. Here's a different view.

Lowell, you are on the winning side of this argument. I agree with you completely, and so does Hugh Hewitt.

I happen to disagree. I beleive it is irresponsible to not allow the public access and learn of how he became evil, and tortured in a small attempt to prevent future tragedies. I definately believe it should be allowed on the net for better understanding at least. Instead we're left to trust NBC's judgement that showing all would make the crazy people come out. I believe complete education is the only way to heal.
