The media did get better about shooter coverage for a while. The public was interested in the "manifestos" since they could provide an explanation but for most of them it's just literally schizophrenic ramblings and the media stopped giving them oxygen.

Exactly, which is why talking about "liberal shooters," or the Trumpist Mormon killer is moot, silly, and even counterproductive. It's crazy people doing crazy things, period.

it seems the more “political” the nature of the shooting, the more coverage it seems to get as well.

either way, it’s a feedback loop from Hell.
