The fact that the article uses a crappy Instagrammed photo for the picture is baffling


why? seems on-topic and relevant to me. Maybe you missed the irony.


The photo felt like it was also trying to frame Instagram in a harsh light, similar to how articles about violent crime often feature mugshots.


Not necessarily. Someone took that photo and posted it to their Instagram filter, spreading the word to all of their Instagram followers. Seems like the author of the photo could have been trying to get the message to Instagram users.
