No publicity "reward" for UK terrorists. Names & pictures not to appear in media

Rejected 14 signatures

Terrorists should not be "rewarded" for their crimes by having their picture and name all over the newspapers and television. They should go to their graves with their deeds unknown.

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Do not allow the media to publicise the name of any terrorist attacker.
