Back in the ‘80s, when I was a TV reporter, and when I wanted to show some “graphic” video on TV, I always warned the audience before I showed it. I told them to “close your eyes or turn your head away from the screen if you don't want to see it”, and when the scenes were over, I told them it was over so they could look at the screen again. My audience liked that approach very much.

How very kind of you to alert viewers when you were a reporter. I congratulate you. In Sacramento, channel 10 doesn't show graphic footage on the 5pm news and if there *is* something questionnable they warn the public beforehand. Much appreciated.
