I was fascinated today to see Mother Jones and many others reposting, entirely without reflection or comment, what seemed to me to be not "crowdsourced" images but second story surveillance camera shots of the FBI suspects. (Who, in addition, are being howled after as guilty until proven innocent in this digital manhunt - and thank God the NYPost "exonerated" their suspects before that turned into something ugly...) Well, yes, the FBI is doing their job with the tools available, and as I live in metro Boston I would most healthily STFU... But if this incident had happened in London, I can't help but think MJ et al might have engaged a moment of reflection and spine in the middle of that process, perhaps?
