Thresholds of violence: How school shootings catch on, by Malcolm Gladwell https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/10/19/thresholds-of-...

Gladwell interviewed about the article on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition: https://www.npr.org/2015/10/13/448182623/how-riots-may-help-...

I think he mentioned it in The Tipping Point as well, which may be in one of your links.

I'll do some searching. I know it was on NPR, and within the last 3 years.

(just leaving a comment for future reference because I'm also interested)

Here's a link you can look at:

There is a whole campaign around this. I've read through some of their stuff but if you're digging and see some red flags please bring it back here because I'd love to know.

There's a research PDF as well I'm unable to link to because the file opens directly on my phone. But if you Google "On the media mass shooting", a link to ifa.org might come up.

I googled that query because I remember hearing it from the On the media podcast.

Was going to ask the same. I’d love to read it.
