Hotair ^ | 07/17/2013 | Ed Morrissey It’s interesting, and infuriating . We’ve already seen the rise of what Twitchy calls the “Jaharem” of admirers of the Boston Marathon bombing suspect, in custody since murdering a police officer and engaging in a firefight with law enforcement, then hiding and bleeding in a boat the rest of the day until he was discovered. Now Rolling Stone offers a profile of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the surviving brother of the duo who killed three and injured hundreds of others at the event, including an eight-year-old boy shredded by their bomb. Why not give Tsarnaev the soft focus treatment for that, huh? RS at least notes that Tsarnaev became “a monster,” so why give Tsarnaev the celebrity treatment, complete with soft focus, sepia wash, and bedroom eyes. That’s why the credit on the cover says “Illustration by Sean McCabe.” A more minor nitpick comes from the teaser for its cover story. Rolling Stone insists on using the name “Jahar Tsarnaev.” That may be how the first name is pronounced, but his name is spelled “Dzhokhar.” It certainly sounds chummy and intimate to use the nickname version his friends used, but that’s hardly appropriate for a news story about a “monster.” Why not use his actual name? Did Rolling Stone assume its readers couldn’t figure out how to say it? As Allahpundit notes in the Green Room , the Jaharem isn’t pleased with the magazine despite the soft-focus treatment Tsarnaev gets on the cover. I guess these guys got it all wrong 40 years ago about how to make the cover of the magazine … or maybe they got it right: CLICK ABOVE LINK FOR THE VIDEO
