It was a great national opportunity to talk about the role of the news media and about human memory. Kidding! Mostly it was people being total jerks online.

is it a gawker thing or a US thing to report on methods of suicide?
― 𝔠𝔞𝔢𝔨 (caek), Monday, 20 April 2015 15:38 (nine years ago) link
a tabloid thing in general? maybe there are laws or something in Britain where some topics are harder to cover for reasons of privacy?
― creaks, whines and trife (s.clover), Monday, 20 April 2015 15:43 (nine years ago) link
uk editors' code of practice says When reporting suicide, care should betaken to avoid excessive detail about the method used. but the gutter press frequently ignores this
― Pat Condell tha funkee homosapien (Noodle Vague), Monday, 20 April 2015 16:29 (nine years ago) link
you dont even report it as suicide here. "tragically" is a codeword.

Don't all newspapers report the method of suicide?
― deej loaf (D-40), Monday, 20 April 2015 17:52 (nine years ago) link
AP style on it is as follows according to the most recent updates, fwiw:
Generally, AP does not cover suicides or suicide attempts, unless the person involved is a well-known figure or the circumstances are particularly unusual or publicly disruptive. Suicide stories, when written, should not go into detail on methods used.
― slothroprhymes, Monday, 20 April 2015 18:11 (nine years ago) link
that said more than a few papers/publications don't observe strict AP style the most obv example being the new york times

xps lol there's no point in 'bringing it' -- the world doesn't need several dozen more posts of your relentless stupidity -- i was just a lil frustrated after having caught up on the thread
when you talk nonsense about music and musicians tell you you're full of shit and then you keep going anyway, it's kind of cute in a look-at-the-seven-year-old way. when whiney zings you he's just playing peekaboo with a baby! when you talk nonsense about other things it isn't cute, just dumb

Stop beating around the bush-- I literally don't know what your problem is not what you're even talking about most of the time here-- if you have an issue stop being a vague punk and tell me wtf the problem is
