I know, and I agree. I don't expect them to air it for a minute.,
I would, however, like to hear Dan Rather, editor of the CBS Evening News, say: "We have received many letters and phone calls exhorting us to air this video, given the considerable airtime that the photos from the Iraqi prison has received on our news broadcasts. However, we cannot because the sheer brutality and inhumanity of this act make it unsuitable for the public airwaves. But I wish for you to know that this despicable, brutal acts is so far beyond the humiliation visited upon the Iraqi prisoners who inhabit the maximum security cellblock that they should not be mentioned in the same breath. The difference between our two societies is when a U.S. soldier commits a wrong, we expose and rectify that wrong. They celebrate theirs. May God bless our troops and the United States."
Think he'll say it?

There was no way to be certain the tape was authentic.

Definitely agree! I watched the video and in retrospect, am sorry I did. It is not suitable for the general public. But I wholeheartedly agree with your statement about Dan Blather coming out with some kind of statement like your post.
Well said by the way.
Cheers!
