      We have heard from some readers upset with our publishing a photo showing victims after a brutal attack in Nairobi. We understand how painful this coverage can be, and we try to be very sensitive in how we handle both words and images in these situations. https://nyti.ms/2VTreKW pic.twitter.com/1sqgTnnVKW

      As an American in Nairobi, I've never seen pictures of bodies in the news after our numerous US school shootings. I feel just as discraced by your response as I do by your original decision to publish photos of bodies from the #RiversideAttack

          I’ve never seen anything like this. Disappointing.
