Giving murders -FAMOUS- treament...argg...this pisses me off.

In the recent mall shooting, he wanted to end his life, took others, and wanted to be famous.

So instead of the meida -NOT- granting him his wish they give me exactly what he want

first images of him, now a a photo of the letter, what next a video and audio?

Does it not bother anyone else that they do this, sure it sells paper and gets web hits but blah, does it not set an example for wanaes and others who think it, if i go out i want to go out in style!

At least he is infamous instead of just famous. And it is worth him being famous as long as the eight dead also get acknowledgement.

Whatever, dude, it's big news.

What, you want to let the wishes of killers dictate how you run your news outlet?

Hasn't the recent Gamespot controversy taught you ANYTHING?

Journalkistic credibility shouldn't be sold to the highest dollar.

But by that same logic, journaliists shouldn't ignore an important story just because one of the principle participants happened to be a total ass.

And here you are, talking about him. Forget him, and move on.JustPlainLucas

I noticed that as well. Media's objectives achieved?

Sadly, yes.

Its an important topic that people should hear, and hopefully learn from

And Lucas I noticed your one of us now, a nobody :P

The media is so stupid! They think that people just FEED off of crime, violence, sex and rape, so they post all this crap until their ratings go down.

The media's influence can go to hell for all I care

Nah....not unless he talks about the individual. Ownage denied.

what? the man said he didn't like murderers getting attention, then he contributes by making a post about a murderer. then this other man points out he did that and thereby powned him.

Nope. He talked about the event. He didn't talk about or even name the shooter. No ownage unless he was talking about the shooter.

so describing a shooting and a murderer in great detail doesn't give it moar attiontion?

The individual wanted to be famous....if no one is talking about him then he failed. He is not even named in this thread dude. There is a difference and I must say....

powned (confirmed) as they are two different things.;)

but the thread creator was pissed off at murderers getting attention, and creates a thread about murderers getting attention. and thereby giving them attention.

powned (confirmed)

The problem is, we need to report the murders, but we also need to not make a name out of the killer, which is complicated...wemhim

Exactly....

Logic is a wonderful thing to employ. The shooter wanted to be famous...he is not famous if no one is talking about HIM.....and only the event. Now if you don't understand the difference between the two it is pointless to continue stating the same thing. I made my point. You have not.

how could you argue against my point if I never made it?

and besides if he helped make the even famous and not the killer, then by making the event famous more people will learn of the murderer anyway.

well I obviously made one if you understood what I meant

NaiKoN9293

It's not learning about the killing that the shooter wanted. He wanted to be famous. Let's start here....do you understand what famous means? Now go back to the OP and tell me what you know about the person that committed the killings of a personal nature.

Nope. I understood what you posted...but it didn't make a point. It was erroneous.

wow, I just argued on the internet, and as if that isn't bad enough, I lost. All I wanted to do to begin with was say powned (confirmed) to someone and in the process got myself powned (confirmed).

I still think it's sad how many murders are reported one the news today and help make it such a common thing. In Norway when someone is murdered or even suspected murdered it stays as a news story for almost 6 month and sometimes several years if there is a long investigation/trial. In America when someone is killed the best they can hope for is their 15 minutes of fame, and barely that.

I'll get you one day, and it will be powned (confirmed)
