Suicide stories capture attention. Media reporting of suicides is the subject of widespread study, especially in terms of its contagion effects in at-risk individuals. Research findings of studies that examine media reporting of suicide practices identify both harmful and protective effects. This chapter will highlight the current trends and impact of media reporting of suicides on different groups and consider possible contributing factors to harmful reporting. We will also examine concepts of safe (protective) reporting and discuss the evidence base for safe suicide reporting interventions. Lastly, we will address relevant prevention strategies and challenges.
