This is absolutely unacceptable. Best practices from @nasponline, @NASRO_Info, and @SafeSchoolsOrg specifically advocate AGAINST highly sensorial drills, especially for students. These are not the types of drills we should be conducting. Follow the evidence and best practices.

Side note to all of this, but @SunSentinel has run multiple tweets over today's Parkland news, never once showing shooter's image, and only mentioning name in downthread tweets. You don't need to blast his image all over Twitter. https://twitter.com/SunSentinel/status/1449038139150983170

A further reminder of the need for @NoNotoriety. Thank you to the @SunSentinel for your sensitive coverage of the #Parkland shooting updates. We need more media outlets to follow your lead and adopt these practices. #ResponsibleReporting
Thanks @Daniel_Sweeney for pointing out that it is possible for the media to cover this in a sensitive way. Showing the shooter’s picture and mentioning him in headlines only adds to his notoriety and further traumatizes those who lost loved ones and our community. https://twitter.com/Daniel_Sweeney/status/1449038921443151872
There will likely be #BreakingNews shortly about the #Parkland school shooting murder trial. I have no comment on any of this right now. In the interest of self-care, I am signing off of social media for the rest of the day. Before I do, I want to share two important things. 1/3
