Why does the media journalist like to play word games,such as,when describing a serial killer,they call them?

a killer,but when the media has a hatred for someone else,they call them a murderer,has anyone else noticed the media bias when it comes to this sort of thing?

There are legalities when describing a killer as such. He is either a SUSPECT in the killing of someone, or he was found guilty of killing someone. News media must strictly adhere to the laws when reporting a crime factually, without finger pointing accusations or else face liability prosecution including slander.

It’s only those politically correct rodents who try to find fault with calling a spade a spade, a killer a killer will look for words to take offense for kicks.

For example :
Someone with no documentation, ID and money found in the USA is an Illegal Immigrant so if this term offends, then the truth hurts.

Media manipulation exists in cases where select stories are not printed out of preferential bias for the person/s involved. These omitions are deliberate and that can be another way of "political managing."

    The media is in the business of emotional and psychological manipulation of the masses. Why do they always include a serial killer’s middle name?
