Why does MSNBC blur the faces of terrorists?
Posted on 11/09/2004 9:24:37 PM PST by Serious Capitalist
I was probably the only person watching Keith Olberman on MSNBC and his "Countdown" Show tonight- I must ask- why whenever they show pictures of insurgents with AK-47's or RPG's their faces are blurred- like they are in the witness protection program??? Why can't we see the evil faces of these terrorists- why is MSNBC protecting people that seek to murder our troops?

Maybe they're afraid we'll recognize Nic Robertson or Amanpour..

Did he refer to them as "alledged" terrorists?

They are protecting their ID's.
PMSNMB is not much better than Al-Jazzera in most every way.
Not much better at all.

because if the idiots figured out that they could be utilized by US forces to ID them, they would start shooting cameramen. And the problem with that is....

But you'd be dead in the furtherance of the cause....which they obviously support and that's why they are getting the access and arranged footage.

"Maybe the pictures are from Al Jazeera ?"
Good question. ..and the best answer so far.
But maybe it IS just a matter. . .somehow; of Political Correctness.
Watch Fox and haven't noticed; but will pay more attention.

MSNBC is simply trying in their own way to make this: "A more SENSITIVE war".

Of course they might be Pennsylvania voters.

Perhaps for the same reason we normally don't like to have names of street gangs published or too much publicity around gang crime. It emboldens the criminals, who desire the acclaim and notoriety, why help them be famous? Maybe they think it will increase their virgin allotment if they get their mugs on the news.

I would guess they are protecting them so that our soldiers won't be able to identify them. Can't take side you know.
