Coverage of these attacks is far to much 12:01 - Mar 23 with 2362 views | flashblue | TV and print editors need to be spoken about this in no uncertain terms. Four people died. Tragic for those involved, but not a threat to our country. These events need to be downplayed not hyped up. Media needs to be on our side. Remove the oxygen of publicity. | |

The reaction to this vs the murder of Jo Cox by the press have been quite different. | |

I'm not "arguing" over anything, I'm stating my opinion in a fair manner. No need to be so aggressive. It's not about semantics, it's about not playing into the hands of those who condone these sort of acts. | |

Colour has nothing to do with the different reactions. The two acts can't be compared in scale, no matter how awful Jo Cox's murder was. | |

Colour 100% changes the reaction and how the media perceive it. There were huge differences in coverage and agendas between the two. In scale, no, but in regards to the difference between an organised group plotting to access bombs/hijack planes and commit mass atrocities vs some idiot reading some stuff and deciding wake up one morning and commit a murderous crime the two are similar to the latter. | |

Use of the word "arguing". I'm not arguing anything. | |

If that was aggressive then I apologise. We'll just have to agree to disagree. | |

I can't be bothered to argue with anyone these days. I'm happy to reasonably debate opinions though :) | |

In an ideal world one thread should have said shocking scenes, awful tragedy and thoughts are with the families. It would get a couple of hundred uppies and that would be that. | |

I've always been a believer that events in the world will always have repercussions that need discussing. Until we agree some kind of law that sets the allocated time period before they can be discussed then I can't see the harm in any discussion that isn't disrespectful to the victims from my moral compass. | |

Ok, some are controlled by fear. | | | |
Coverage of these attacks is far to much on 17:39 - Mar 23 with 548 views | Mullet | How much is the media and how much is the audience though? Social media is just the previous throwaway fears and thoughts, written down and compacted into something is it not? Is that having as much of an effect as anything else? I do wonder if there's more sensationalism, or just more ways for it to be tangled up and held onto these days. | |

None that I can see. If you look around London today, everyone's just getting on with things. Where are these people "controlled by fear"? | |
