Newspaper insensitivity of the week - February 12

The extremely sensitive nature of this inquest into a tragic death compelled me to post this, as the insensitivity of the accompanying picture just shows a complete lack of care and attention to an online product, even though I'm sure it is JUST as heart-breaking as any in-paper travesty to the family of those concerned...


The picture is a stock picture of the Gloucestershire Coroner, which is desperate in the first instance. But as the screen grab below shows, it just isn't suitable at best, grossly insensitive at worst.


Someone should hang their head in shame.
