I would have been more impressed if Rolling Stone, or magazine, for that matter, instead had devoted a cover to the owners of the fertilizer storage facility that blew up two days after the Boston Marathon bombing, seeing as how it killed more people, did much more damage, and was much more preventable (the company lied to the EPA about what they were storing):

I read a quote somewhere after both tragedies that terrorists crave publicity and owners of companies that violate laws try to avoid it, and the media is happy to give both of them what they want.
