How do you mean? If the city is indeed strewn with corpses, the reality of the situation needs to be shown.

I agree completely.
Why do we demand sanitized news ?

I agree. This is a real wakeup call for all of us in terms of dissaster. It CAN happen in our country. It's not just some far-away third-world location that has corpses laying in the street. This dissaster may bring about some pretty far-reaching changes in terms of preparedness in every state in the nation. Shameful situation in N.O.

Just to play devil's advocate - do you agree that coffins of soldiers should be aired, to show the reality of the situation in Iraq/Afghanistan?

Why? If it was a terrorist attack then perhaps. But a natural disaster, no, they don't need to show dead bodies on TV.

they say they are still finding bodies floating and jammed in under debris,,,, want all flowers?
