Media attraction to terrorist acts


Most people see the explosions, bodies, and training camps on the nightly news, and they think, "wow, that's terrible." or "Why would these terrorists want their training footage out to the public?" The simple answer, recruitment.

Q. Do you think with, this being the case, the nightly news should be more careful about what they show on tv? Explain
