By placing the Governing Body as the entire front row of the "choir", an outside observer might infer that these men were somehow more important/privileged, in a different class than the others in the group.
It's a good thing there's no "clergy class" within Jehovah's Witnesses. And by "clergy" I mean people who's full time employment is to set the doctrine of, and direct the teachings of a church.
Is that a tall Eddie Munster in the back row?

@Splash:
(Luke 20:46, 47) “Beware of the scribes who like to walk around in robes and who love greetings in the marketplaces and front seats in the synagogues and the most prominent places at evening meals, and who devour the houses of the widows and for show make long prayers. These will receive a more severe judgment.”
Right on!
@ DesirousOfChange, "Is that a tall Eddie Munster in the back row?" 
If and when Lett falls out with the other GB members, expect a very, very, VERY loud noise.
Oh, the other observation I have is the photo looks creepily Mormonish.
Splash got it absolutely right.......They really do love themselves don't they ?
One would think that a person with a modicum of humility would look at their broadcasts so far and admit that they are not good at it.. There must be hundreds of speakers in the Bethel, to say nothing of the New York area , who could put across their message with style and clarity - and look good . But no, they just sit their hogging the limelight , surrounded by sycophants who tell them they are wonderful.
If they listened to us, we'd be doing them a favour !
