My Mom saw dead bodies in NO on CNN a couple nights ago - one had been murdered in a horrific way. No faces were shown but she wishes she had not seen this because as she says....you cannot UNsee what you have seen. Told her to quit watching CNN - they will be going for the sensational National Enquirer type coverage.

I have no problem with seeing the bodies covered up eg in body bags because that is the reality of the situation what worries me is the initial finding them being shown live especially if shown before families are advised.

These pictures would possibly identify the people that have died either from where they are found or what they are wearing/identifying marks etc and therefore relatives or friends watching would see before they are officially advised.

Shots showing long range recovery after the bodies are placed in bag or covered IMHO is acceptable but any photos before that should only be taken and used for official identification and autopsy purposes and should not be released to the media or general public.
