ISIS Front Page In Independent On Sunday Is Exactly What They Deserve
The murderers of Islamic State put the media in a difficult position - how to report their videos of beheading hostages while denying them the oxygen of publicity the gruesome footage is designed to give them?
Alan Henning, a taxi driver and father-of-two who was inspired to travel to Syria to deliver aid, was beheaded in a video released on Friday - the fourth Westerner to die on film in this way in recent weeks.
On Saturday, papers chose to use older images of him, rather than the ones from the video of him in an orange jumpsuit, waiting to be killed.
The Sun wrote: "We refused to give his killers the absurd killers the publicity they crave.
"Instead we choose to remember Alan Henning. The taxi driver from Eccles. A hero."
