So, the press shouldn't report a murder case because of who the alleged killers are?

Sorry, but I don't buy that idea at all. This case was, in my view, as big an aberration as the Mathew Sheppard murder or that of the poor man in Texas who was dragged to death. Funny how the Press had no trouble reporting those other stories but are strangely silent on this one. Couldn't be bias, could it?

        If the reporting of said story puts peoples lives in jeopardy, then the reporters should use discretion. - alcaray - 11/21/2001 7:08:59 PM
