It is not just the bomber himself, but people linked to him that you don't want to scare off before you can catch them.
Regardless of the actual content, if we are sharing information that we deem to be classified, immediately sharing it with the media is unforgivable, particularly when it involves a terrorist attack.

I don't think the issue is with the media reporting the information. The issue is with the US security services leaking the information to the media.

Am I missing something here or are US media outlets doing exactly what they are supposed to do and reporting on the story? Isn't journalism's job to gather information and report it? None of this information out of the ordinary when it comes to these cases, I can see not reporting the name if the person is still out there and authorities are quietly trying to catch them before they flee but this was a suicide bombing.
