This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Limit how mainstream media reports terrorist attacks and mass murders.
Huge media coverage on terrorist attacks helps to glorify terrorism and helps to further its agenda. Every terrorist attack that is given huge media coverage only fuels more terrorism by inspiring young men and women who pledge allegiance to terrorist groups. Limit coverage and help limit terrorism.
