The newspaper front pages all have full-page images of the murderer with bloodied hands and a knife, all with reactionary headlines.
Surely the last thing we want to do is highlight these extremist's ideologies in the national press. Yet that's what we always seem to do.
Yes the public will want to know what happened, but surely we need to downplay it. Otherwise people will make an association with violent acts and widespread media coverage of their cause.
