There are some politicians who think that by denying killers access to the media, you will stifle their impact on the world. The NZ Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, has adopted a similar stance with the mass murderer who gunned down over fifty people in two mosques in Christchurch during Friday prayers
Murderers often want to hit the headlines, and white supremacist murderers are no exception. Usually, we would be looking at the face of evil on the front page of the world’s newspapers and the killer’s name in a large font as the banner headline
Ms Ardern asks us not to say the name of the Christchurch killer, but remember the names of his victims. A noble sentiment from an honourable woman.
