>Media is just helping Weev spread his message I feel like more attention should be brought to this, and a greater onus put on the media for "enabling" such behavior. This thought first occurred to me when The Rolling Stone put a glamor shot of Tsarnaev, the Boston Marathon terrorist bomber, on its cover. In the click/eyes-driven world we live in, the line between fame and infamy is increasingly blurred IMHO, more accountability needs to be placed on the media. Of course, a story needs to be "sold" to keep publications alive - so I wouldn't be opposed to putting a pseudonym attributed to the criminal that doesn't use his/her actual name in the print.
