Greetings!

Fortunately, there has been quite a bit written on this topic in recent times. You might want to read through some newspaper and journal articles first, to see which side you would like to argue. Some things to consider: if it does help terrorists, does that necessarily mean that it should not be done? There is a balancing act between adverse consequences, such as potentially aiding terrorists, and what we would be giving up if we prohibit it--free speech, an informed public. If society decrees that the media should not report on acts of terrorism, the only way to enforce that would be censorship--in which case, are we not giving up the freedoms which we are defending when we fight terrorism?

I hope this helps get you started!
