VA Tech shooting: Is it time for the media to tone it down?
February 8, 2012 · Filed Under Tech News
All politics aside, should ALL media outlets “cool it” a bit regarding this incident? Aside from regular coverage, do we really need to see all these news specials featuring the killer and his face plastered all over the web? Might this kind of exposure trigger the minds of potential copycats?

I hear ya!! What ever happened to Anna Nicole 24/7???
I agree that they should, but in the liberal media boss’s mind-The big story must be milked for all it is worth.
Those human leeches have found something to suck upon. They want to divert attention from the murder and mayhem we are causing in Iraq.
The Visual Media is without doubt the most disgusing aspect of American life.
You haven’t started yet. In a months time there will come out a movie of this killer. That’s America and the press+Hollywood. He will be a hero. Rambo. THIS MOVIE IS BASED ON TRUE STORY. “RAMBO RESURRECT”
NO! They need to be talking about the victims–not the loon-crazed psychopath!
This is the worst massacre in US HISTORY! for this kind of disaster.
The news for once is on a subject that needs to be Covered Until People do Something about it to ensure this never has to happen again to our children.
Let’s see from a logical way from the media’s point. Anna Nicole Smith was a hot (no pun intended) topic for weeks following her death…Based on their priority system, this should play itself out in a month or so…It should end with the burials. Not to be disrespectful, but it’s true.
Yes they should, and give the victims family and friends some privacy to heal. We could turn off the news and stop supporting their ratings.
