Obama team weighs releasing picture of dead bin Laden
10:41 AM
By David Jackson, USA TODAY
President Obama is weighing a tough public relations decision: Whether to release the photo of a man shot in the head.
Of course, in this case, the man is Osama bin Laden.
The president is also pondering release of a video showing bin Laden's burial at sea.
The advantage: More proof that the terrorist leader is really dead.
The potential disadvantage: Giving jihadists another motive for retaliation, not to mention the issue of public taste.
White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan
CAPTIONBy Saul Loeb, AFP/Getty Images"The additional release of information -- or any type of a photographic evidence -- is something that we have to take into account in terms of what reaction might be to it," said White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan, speaking in NBC's Today show.
"And so," Brennan added, "we're doing that, again, in a careful manner."
Brennan added:
Well, we have been releasing a lot of information to the American public over the last 36 hours. We're trying to make sure that we're confident in the information that we release. We want to make sure that it's in the right condition.
So what we're doing is now considering whether or not additional information, such as photos or videos or whatever else. But this needs to be done thoughtfully. And what we're trying to do is to ensure that the information we put out is clear and as accurate as possible.

I hope this doesn't take as long as the birth certificate.

Sorry, But I Don’t Believe This
(Before I begin, I just have to say: Oh boy—here I go really stepping away from the shores of the mainstream.)
When the Bolivian Army killed Che Guevara in October 1967, they displayed his body as proof that he was indeed dead. The Bolivians in fact staged the body so that ordinary people—and the world’s journalists—could get a good view of the corpse, up close and personal.

They could put the photos next to his college transcript and scholarship records. None of them will ever see the light of day.

Beware of Fake Osama bin Laden Death Photo
Updated: Tuesday, 03 May 2011, 9:45 AM MDT
Published : Tuesday, 03 May 2011, 9:45 AM MDT
(EndPlay Staff Reports) - Despite the rash of discussion and saturated media reports, many people have sought to verify the news of Osama bin Laden's death for themselves, with their own eyes.
Whether or not photos of a dead bin Laden surface has become a hot topic in the days after the terrorist's death in a raid Sunday in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
Though fake death images started circulating around the Internet moments after bin Laden's passing was announced, U.S. officials have not released an image of the dead terrorist's corpse. Authorities are still determining whether or not they will release the actual image photo taken at the scene of bin Laden's death.
"It is really, really graphic," the official told MSNBC about the actual image of bin Laden's corpse.
Tuesday morning The Drudge Report posted a story stating a source claims that President Obama has decided to release a photo of showing bin Laden's death, though the timing of such a release is not clear.
Some media sites jumped early and posted a hoax death photo. Front pages of the U.K.'s the Mail, Times, Telegraph, Mirror and Sun websites on Monday all boasted a haunting image of a bearded, bloody man with matted hair and a half-closed eye, asserting the photos were of bin Laden's corpse.
However, that widely-circulated graphic image has since been proven to be false and has been removed from the sites.
The false image can be seen here .
According to The Guardian , another British newspaper, the fake image originally appeared online more than two years ago. A news source in the Middle East, themedialine.org, ran the photo April 29, 2009, with an editor's note stating the site was "unable to ascertain whether the photo is genuine or not."
In the hours since bin Laden's death was announced, a number of malware developers have used interest in the death photo to spread attacks.
The Dallas Data Center released a statement stating that photos and links "spread across Twitter and other websites are not authentic and may in fact be dangerous malware scams" and urges computer users not to open or download any unknown files.

WHITE HOUSE TO RELEASE BIN LADEN DEATH PHOTO
Tue May 03 2011 10:22:50 ET
President Obama decided Tuesday morning to release at least one photo showing Osama Bin Laden's death, a top source claims.
The images, being described as 'graphic', are bound to stir emotions in the east and the west, and will likely become the most viewed photographs in modern history.
One image shows a bullet wound to his head above his left eye.
Will it remove all doubt about the death?
The exact timing on the release is being debated.
