    Cuomo, the anchor for much of CNN’s daytime coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing, said Friday he purposely avoids using the names of the two suspects to avoid giving them more attention. He said he isn’t trying to hide news, since he knows others in the media have used the names often.

    He also said he’s not much interested in stories about why the older brother hated the United States.

    Cuomo said he looks for something positive in the tragic story, including why relatively few people died in the bombing.

    I’m not sure we want our news anchors introducing their personal emotions into their reporting….thats why we have Hannity, O’Reilly, Mathews and Maddow….

    When’s the last time you said “Hitler”? I agree with Cuomo.

    Evil is not avoided by refusing historical documentation.

    To the above, this is not a liberal cause. It is PACIFISM.

    I agree with the newsman. By now everyone knows the names of these terrorists, why mention them over and over.

    Similarly, I hate looking at their pictures. There is no need for the media to keep showing those despicable faces.
