      @mattklewis Should the ban apply to Mohammed Atta? Osama bin Laden? Suppose a killer is on the loose? No pics to warn public? #slipperyslope

      @brithume @mattklewis why not wait till you have facts then report, rather than speculate for 24-48 hours and have to correct?

      Perhaps institute a "wait period" before reporting? MT @DiveConLFP: why not wait till you have facts then report, rather than speculate...

      @mattklewis @DiveConLFP Law enforcement told reporters the shooter's name was Ryan Lanza. So the news media shouldn't report it?

      @MarcACaputo @diveconlfp That's why we need a wait period before reporting.

      @mattklewis @DiveConLFP We used to have wait periods (daily newspaper), 6:30 news. Insta-news makes this much more likely 2 happen

      @mattklewis 1 could argue: More media=more errors. More guns=more shootings.

      @MarcACaputo maybe. It's interesting that the worst examples of irresponsible/unethical reporting are coming from the MSM of late.

          @mattklewis And that's the rub: Most of us right, left and center can find agreement on 90% of the issues. It's that 10%...
