    US hunter killed by Cape Buffalo

    MSN just ran a story about a US hunter killed by a charging Cape Buffalo in Africa. Sad, and not all that uncommon. The photo that accompanied the article showed a hunter with a semi-auto shotgun engaging an aerial target. There was no reference to it being the deceased, just a man with a gun. This is far from the first time I have seen irrelevant photos used to 'puff' a story. Today's news media have no conscience or knowledge!
