SAN BERNARDINO, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – When we think of “terrorists,” we think of men or women armed with guns indiscriminately shooting at innocent people. But CNN and MSNBC displayed — on live television — a new kind of terrorism, shooting their cameras at the items that remained in the apartment of suspected San Bernardino shooting gunmen Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik.
The journalists sifted through children’s toys, household items and identification cards not just of the deceased suspects but of possible innocent individuals.
There were conflicting reports on whether or not the apartment landlord or the FBI allowed the reporters into the apartment. It is assumed that the apartment remained a crime scene at the time of the media terrorist attack.
It wasn’t clear whether the perpetrators were radicalized journalists or were simply clueless of journalistic principles and ethics..
