| Someone was paid actual money to take this picture this week. I guess to have an "up to date" picture of this crappy strip mall. |
My partner hypothesizes that it creates a good visual shorthand for the Boomers who are reading the paper. A sort of "Yeah, that GameStop, that store that you think your grandson would want to go check out, but he never seems to want to go in". But still, it's absolutely baffling to me that they are showing photos of the storefront when a picture of the logo would suffice. I don't know why this bothers me so much, but I think I've figured out why: it's because the fact that the stock is associated with GameStop literally changes nothing about the story.
