"Shocking!" "Revolting!" "Outrageous!" "Chilling!"
Those are just some of the adjectives in reaction to the National Enquirer's published photos of singer Whitney Houston in her casket at a funeral home.
It seems that the media (and some people in general) are overly sensitive to the publication of dead superstars.
This isn't the first time the National Enquirer published exclusive photos of dead celebrities. They've published photos of Elvis Presley (photo at top) in his casket (similar to the Houston photos), a facial shot of John Lennon at the morgue, full body shots of Selena on an autopsy table and a dead Michael Jackson in an ambulance.
Each time this happened, some people raised hell over the "poor taste" of the National Enquirer in publishing the photos. Apparently, not enough people agreed with the complainers as the tabloid made tons of money on those issues.
