I think you will find out a lot that the Public do not have a 'right' to know …… and by media reporting this is giving any terrorist or un-hinged person air time, therefore fuelling their obsession.
For example, no one has a 'right' to know my medical history unless I want them to know the ins and outs!
YOur medical history is entirely different CLKD as that's personal and also protected data.
Any event that happens in the world whether it's a crime, an atrocity, a royal wedding, a medical breakthrough, a space shuttle event etc is newsworthy and of interest or concern to the public. The media just can't pick and choose what they will report on and what they will keep quiet about .... Unless of course there's an ongoing court case.
