So by the argument, the more terrorism kills, the less it should be reported?

I think it's clear it's not due to its infrequency that it's reported on so much.

Are you sure about that? I haven't actually lived through the Troubles in England, but my understanding is that while terrorist acts were obviously reported by the news, there was much less hysteria than for today's much rarer terrorist events.
