Liberian Ledger on “another look-how-crazy-these-Africans-are story“:
My two cents: the reporter and photographer could have done a better job humanizing the phenomenon they're reporting on. Strikes me as just another look-how-crazy-these-Africans-are story. What is the value of showing the guys mugging with the skull? She doesn't even get the cemetery's name right.
