He came in with a separate cameraman

I'm at work and not able to see the TV. My question was whether Kerry's cameraman's feed was being transmitted to the media and being seen on TV. If this is the case, then there's more to this than Kerry just showing up with a documentary cameraman. This means the media had to make arrangements to get this feed connected to their hookups etc or even that the media supplied the cameraman.

"He came in with a separate cameraman."

Bringing the cameraman was in poor taste, but even mortal enemies can show respect to their deceased opponents by respectfully viewing/treating the body.

We need not duplicate the Democrats' massive mistake of booing Vice President Cheney when he showed his respect to the body of the late Senator Wellstone in Minnesota.

Shoot, half of those here criticizing Senator Kerry for going to see President Reagan's body would have been upset if he had boycotted the whole thing.

We don't need that level of hate. We have more class than that. Sen. Kerry went to see President Reagan. Leave it at that (though the cameraman thing is likely to raise some eyebrows elsewhere).
