Should “The NY Times” Have Used Christopher Stevens’ Photo?

Marcy, NY (WIBX) - Christopher Stevens, the United States' Ambassador to Libya, was killed during an attack on the U.S. Embassy in that country.

"The New York Times" ran a photo of Stevens, lying unconscious but not yet dead, on its website.  Editors defended their decision to run the controversial photo, saying that it was "extremely significant" as a news story, and was a powerful way to convey the situation at the embassy in Benghazi.  Critics say the move was in poor taste.
