"Senseless" and news reporting. OP ED.

"Senseless" and news reporting. OP ED.
Time after time you see that stupid word used describing crime or even terror attacks. Just now they reported Isis destroying ancient artifacts. 

Irrational based on bad logic leads them to do that yes. Same with domestic crime such as murder. There is a psychology behind bad behavior and bad logic. You CAN make sense of those bad things without excusing those behaviors. I really wish media would STOP using the word "senseless". Nobody likes cancer either but we can know what causes it and make sense out of that to reduce it.

You have been watching too much senseless news.
