I don't think there's any other way around it. the media has no choice but to report the news, the public has a complete right to know.

My esteemed collegue the troutman is right . . . partially. If they weren't reporting these kidnappings and executions, the Terrorists would have to become far more extreme. However they run the risk of the public becoming desensitized to what they're doing now so they are eventually going to have to do something more extreme to keep themselves in the media's focus.

How soon until we see a video taped flaying, or live burning.

The media would only really be aiding these butchers if they gave them the airtime to convey thier views, or if the mainstream media was actually showing the executions, so any aid that they're giving is accidental and can't be helped unless the media is willing to compromise thier standards and ethics.
