I agree in part. The 24-hour cycle causes us to show endless loops of shocking/bloody images, which probably aligns with what attackers want, which is definitely not good. But we do also have to cover it. On the flip side, we hugely under-display images of military violence.https://twitter.com/mohonk27/status/1055423984236462080 …
Replying to @mtaibbi
Yes. This conversation has moved beyond “we have to cover it.” Nobody is saying media should not cover it but that the sensationalism is clearly inspiring copycats. Don’t have to cover it in the murderers terms, a snuff film he’s posthumously directing. @sethlachs
