The following story will move Monday as this week’s Tuesday Spotlight, a feature showcasing the best off-the-news enterprise in the AP report:

CAPITOL BREACH-THE IMAGERY -- It’s potential evidence for police. It’s a memento of an I-was-at-Woodstock moment for a particular subset of American. It’s potent propaganda for people who want to recruit the likeminded, and it’s real-life cinema verite that evokes generations of political thrillers. The body of imagery — video and photos, most from phone cameras — captured by intruders at the U.S. Capitol offered a fascinating glimpse into a chaotic public event, and a study in subjectivity by participants who were in the midst of breaking the law. By Jake Coyle. UPCOMING: 1,000 words and photos.
