Rolling Stone magazine’s newest cover boy, Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, has sparked outrage in social media, prompting the magazine to defend its latest cover story. The Rolling Stone article, titled “The Bomber” on the front page, was described by the magazine as a “deeply reported account of the life and times” of Tsarnaev. The 12-page story is based on interviews with dozens of sources that “deliver a riveting and heartbreaking account of how a charming kid with a bright future became a monster,” it said. While members of social media have taken the move as a glamorization of terrorism, Rolling Stone asserts that the article “falls within the traditions of journalism and Rolling Stone’s long-standing commitment to serious and thoughtful coverage of the world’s most important political and cultural issues of the day.”
