Namely the advertising for violence via the sensationalistic media. If Stone had kept most of the violence off screen then the shock value of the violence would not have gotten in the way of pointing out the depravity of media coverage cloaked in glamour. Instead, Stone stoops to the level of showing the graphic violence in a glamorous way. This is what makes me think the film is crap and it is why the film hasn't stood the test of time.

In addition, the Killers is not all that original. It seems to be heavily inspired by another similar work - the disgusting Man Bites Dog.
