A question for the Board...does the 24/7 almost non-stop coverage of these


mass shootings actually help fuel the next one? Do these mentally deranged individuals actually crave the notoriety of the constant media coverage? While it is obviously major news and the public wants to know details...is the constant coverage actually detrimental? I am sure I will hear a chorus of "Having the story go away is exactly what the NRA wants"...but in the case of the latest shooter, he seemed obsessed with trying to set a new record for deaths.
