changing home page images

We are using the Newspaper theme set with the Politics template. We’ve modified the header to suit our needs.
However, in the section labeled Latest Articles, we’d like to do a change, but can’t figure how.
Some of our posts do not have images to go with them. So we select Style 5 for the post (no image). But on the home page, we get the demo ghost image between the headline and the body copy.
Is there a way to have no ghost image appear for those posts without an image?

Thanks.

Hi, not sure this helps, but what we did was a generic “news image” with a satellite dish, our site logo, and use this as ‘featured’ image for stories with no actual photo; this way something gets shared on social if story shared, but also on modules where the ghost image does nothing useful and blank spot would not work with module layouts …

Thanks. We tried using our logo, but found that we had too many non-imaged posts so our logo was splattered all over the front page.
But, you did spur an idea, and that’s to have lots of generic images available.
Thanks.
