STOP! Or Your Picture Will Run in the Paper!

A NEW NEWSPAPER in Texas gets the majority of their content from the police department: mugshots.

For $1 per issue, you can purchase Mugly! and see the faces of the recently arrested (as well as read their names and why they were arrested, though convictions are pending).

Is there anything wrong with building a business model off the backs of those charged with murder, aggravated assault, criminal trespass, DUI and other crimes? Is this journalism or voyeurism?
