Who's at my unoccupied house?

This is a photo and cutline from the latest story in a New York Daily News campaign to embarrass the New York Post for an advertising promotion it did. But if you think the story is absurd -- and it is, especially because so many papers do what the Post is doing -- check out the cutline. Is that a person I see standing in the doorway of their unoccupied house? Maybe it's just the ghost of journalism standards, keeping a sad, watchful eye on what's happened in its absence.
