I noticed something about the BBC's coverage of the Hebdo tragedy
They've avoided that magazine cover^
They posted this image instead [url]http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/80251000/jpg/_80251429_80251428.jpg[/url]. and have numerous photos of stands where the latest issue is sold out, yet no photos of the issue itself.
The BBC has been pushing out articles in which the importance of freedom of speech and expression is shouted from the rooftops, but they don't actually show us the controversial drawings.
For those who would like to see for themselves, this article contains many embedded images, and the shots that show the offensive magazine carefully obscure the prophet [url]http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30808284[/url]

Is it a rational avoidance by a company that does reporting (and has allies) in many Islamic communities?
Or is this a slap in the face to the entire point of not backing down to extremism?[/b]
Please be civil in the comments.

How can anyone get offended by a drawing to the point they're willing to commit mass murder? It's the 21st century you'd have thought mankind as a species would be better than this, these radicals serve no purpose whatsoever in today's society and I wish there was a way to completely wipe them all off the planet. If these idiots ever succeeded we'd be put back to the Stone Age believing in magical beings from story books.
