NEWS OUTLETS THAT NAME OR SHOW MASS
MURDERERS THEMSELVES ACT CRIMINALLY
THEY DON'T ADVANCE NEWS–THEY ENCOURAGE COPYCATS
Media knows this, they've seen it, they've been warned by police, doctors, watchdogs
“But it increases our audience!”
Ethical Guideline: Don't Inspire Evil
“Refrain from gratuitous or repetitious portrayal
of mass murderers' names and images.”
Too many news outlets relish the chance to sink to the lowest common sensational interest. This now includes displaying names and images of the most heinous mass murderers they can find–which they now help create. This is not “news,” it is a corrupt financial misuse of the public trust. Media outlets that do it deserve scorn, boycotts and recognition for encouraging copycat murder and societal decay.
Police see it constantly and call for it to end. The medical and psychological establishments recognize the effects and publish scientific papers denouncing the practice. The public sees what’s going on, abandons the so-called “news” in droves, withdrawing its faith. Mass-media reporters, editors and producers laugh, drink at their parties, rake in cash from useful idiots, and falsely proclaim ignorance as audiences shrink, credibility evaporates and the public is revulsed. Wake up, Fourth Estate, you have become the bane of America’s existence.

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, http://www.jpfo.org is America’s most aggressive civil-rights organization, dedicated to destroying the notion of “gun control” as any kind of credible public-policy position. So-called “gun control” does not control guns and doesn’t control criminal behavior. What it does do is disarm the innocent, leaving them helpless in the face of criminals, tyrannical governments and genocide. History repeatedly proves this fact. Founded in 1989 by Aaron Zelman as a response to the Holocaust, JPFO speaks with the moral authority and tenacious commitment of survivors of persecution, and knows that surrendering your personal and family safety to government protection courts disaster. “You don’t have to be Jewish to fight by our side, you just have to love liberty.”
