A sword attack, heroism, and knee-jerk exceptionalism. 

Wednesday May 1 2024
Yesterday, an apparently maniacal sword attack in a peaceful London suburb resulted in the death of a teenage boy, and injuries to bystanders. 
Media coverage was inevitably lurid, even by the standards of current reporting of state-sponsored bloodshed around the world. 
 Students of journalism would do well to study the skills of attention-grabbing headlines this morning. 
Unusually, it is not easy to identify the newspaper from the headlines.
