Come on Gannett NJ! Stock Art as lead art on Newswebsites?

Scroll down to the Freitag, Dezember 12 2008 @ 12:21:00 CET entry of the handcuffed fellow.

Seems this fellow gets around because he is front and center on MyCentralJersey's lead rotation today:

Here's the article level page:

I know this is the kind of story that is sure to get lots and lots and lots of reader feedback, with more and more reader "engagement" by the minute, man, if you get my drift, but really? Stock art without any sort of explanation/disclaimer is now acceptable for front-page news?

It is at times like this I am so glad I walked away from NJ news coverage a few years ago.

Is it just me? Is it just my local Gannett website? Or is this the new normal in newswebsite coverage of breaking events?

Anyone think this would fly on A1 of tomorrow's woodpulp edition?
