Knowingly engaging in dishonest journalism with the belief that the effect of the dishonesty will outweigh the penalty from the dishonesty. Examples of Suicide Bomber Journalism include malicious editing of a piece and leaving material facts out of a piece.
Sixty Minutes engaged in Suicide Bomber Journalism in their interview of Governor Rick DeSantis. Their editing of the piece was quite malicious indeed. It's unlikely that their viewers will ever know or care.

Get the Suicide Bomber Journalismmug. Mike: White cops are killing Black men for no legitimate reason and I'm sick of it!
Jen: BOSTIT!
Mike: What the fuck is BOSTIT?
Jen: Based On Something That Isn't True. Your assertion that White cops are randomly killing Black men is BOSTIT.
Mike: Wait a second... For one thing, I'm the person in this relationship responsible for stupid ass acronyms, and...
Jen: SAA's?
Mike: Yes! And what the fuck has gotten into you? And another thing, it's been proven by statistics!
Jen: Like the Freddie Gray case?
Mike: Yeah!
Jen: Three of the six cops on that case were Black. And by the way, all of the cops were eventually acquited.
Mike: Yes but there's systemic racism in most police departments!
Jen: Another BOSTIT. Police departments strive to hire officers of color. Just look at them and you'll see.
Mike: Yes, but you can't deny that White cops killl Black men.
Jen: Well, cops are engaging in LAW ENFORCEMENT after all. Were you aware that more than ten times more White cops are killed by Black men than unarmed Black men are killed by cops?
Mike: That frazzled logic doesn't make it okay.
Jen: I never said that it did, but I just want you to think about things before you spew forth with your nonsense.
Mike: You've changed.
Jen: You haven't, but you're still my funky fucked up love interest from the West side.
Mike: Ah Baby.
Jen: BOSTIT!

Get the BOSTITmug. Jen: What the fuck? Apparently Bank of America gave my credit card purchase records to the FBI last month!
Mike: BFD, it's just a gotcha gimme, you've got nothing to hide.
Jen: What? I feel violated. Can they really do that?
Mike: I know that AT&T gave Devin Nunes's phone records to Adam Schiff a year or so ago. Really fucked his shit up too.
Jen: It doesn't seem right that the companies can just give our personal information to the government.
Mike: You've got nothing to hide, so don't fret about it.
Jen: I don't like companies giving out my shit and I don't like the government digging through it!

Get the gotcha gimmemug. I've noticed a lot of companies smedging during the corona virus. Taking credit for their own grand behavior when in fact they haven't done anything different than usual. Wikipedia saying "...our volunteers are working to bring you a trusted source of unbiased information. Throughout these challenging times, knowledge must and will remain open for all." I mean seriously, Shut The Fuck Up.
