On The Photos

Would you run these photos? In print, I would not run them, except in. They're all at the most fundamental level revolting; I extend an invitation to anyone who thinks her or she would be able to click through without wincing or gagging? Not a chance.
What criteria did you you use to make a decision? My personal taste, and the understanding of others. I'm a pretty easy to irritate, so I'm sure I would out-offend any Mega-Churching Alpha Moms.
Under what circumstances would you run the photos? If it was of national importance. As in, the capitol would be under threat of nuclear arms. In that extreme case, I would run the photographs. Otherwise we're all good.
Would your decision be different if the events were local? No, this is about not offending everybody in your town. If you don't pander to them, you'll never stay in print. This 2008, people.
Does where or how you play the photo have any bearing on your decision? I would perhaps run them online with a warning; you'd have to only let people with accounts -- who list their age -- to access the images.
With which photo did you struggle the most? The disgusting, foul incident in Seattle.
