"The Internet" is to Blame for Norway’s Anders Breivik (Here we go!)
2012 04 20
Breivik’s bizarre comment captures the baffling nature of a case that has so far lurched from the grotesque public confessional of a mass murderer to the equally tasteless spectacle of a hatemonger whose racist delusions seem to have been fed, in part at least, by the Internet.
