[edit] Photo of Princess Diana
The magazine came under criticism for publishing a picture of Princess Diana, taken as she was dying.[1] The photo, which is black-and-white, depicts Diana receiving oxygen in the wreckage of the vehicle in which she died on August 31, 1997. The picture, which was also run with black bars across the Princess's face in the British newspaper The Sun, was taken from the book Lady Diana: The Criminal Investigation by Jean-Michel Caradec'h.[2] Despite the criticism, the editor of the magazine has defended their decision to publish it.[1]
