bashing the terrorists instead of the journalists?
OK, stop with the "either/or" bullshit.
Seriously, we're complex and intelligent creatures (for the most part) and are capable of doing more than one thing at once. This is not a scenario where you should be choosing the worst of evils and leaving all else unchecked. In the wake of a horrific event like this, journalists should not be given absolute license to act like utter self-serving asshats, particularly towards traumatised people.
We can bash both terrorist and shit-heaping journalists at the same time. More importantly, we absolutely should.

Absolutely but the main thing people were talking about was a Twitter diatribe from an account which doesn't have a name about an event four years ago, not the recent attack.
Some of the stuff in there is terrible if true - hacking facebook pages, pretending to be someone you're not - but criticising news organisations for wanting to talk to witnesses is ridiculous.

I'm probably not defending the behaviour discussed but how about bashing the terrorists instead of the journalists?
Journalists - reporting the truth, shining a spotlight on all that is bad in society, 'attacking the devil' as Sir Harry Evans put it.
Terrorists - blowing up innocent 8 year old girls at Ariana Grande concerts.
You might want to consider who's the best target for your vitriol.
