New York Times: NBC News Defends Its Use of Material Sent by the Killer
Excerpt:
"NBC News fought back yesterday against a growing backlash over the way it handled the pictures and writings of the student who killed 32 people at Virginia Tech.
Steve Capus, the president of NBC News, strongly defended the network’s decision to broadcast the material.
“The news-value question is long gone,” Mr. Capus said. “Every journalist is united on this. You can tell by their actions.” He referred to the widespread use of the material NBC released by virtually every other news organization in the country."
