Extremist web sites do seem like awful incubators. I also have to think that a culture that worships celebrity, combined with guaranteed instant fame/notoriety for perpetrators via extensive news coverage ("if it bleeds, it leads") is also part of the incentive for murder. But a free press is essential to democracy - I don't think we want to go back to press censorship.
