Do we have a responsible media?

The recent and tragic incident of the nurse at the King Edward hospital who committed suicide has seen the media falling over themselves with hysteria.

It is of course sad that an ordinary worker felt under so much pressure that she took her own life but the media deciding that the two Australian djs were to blame is wrong. The djs were definitely stupid to do what they did but they had no plan or intend to contribute to the tragedy or could have foreseen the reaction that their action produced.

What is more significant is that the nurse had left letters stating that she had been put under pressure by those managing her. The media should do more to look into this rather than convict two idiotic djs for getting involved in a prank. They should not be the victims in all of this.
