"Shep showing dead body Someone PLEASE beat him senseless!?"

Why?

If for no other reason, to raise the collective IQ of Fox News. That twit is far more useful unconscious.

It's probably "media poker." I'll see you a photo of a dead body, and raise you a photo of two dead bodies. (I've noticed CNN has show a couple dead bodies too.)

Personally, I really don't have a problem with them showing dead bodies, because that's what is happening and I don't really believe in bridling the press from showing reality.

What I do have a problem with is the attitude I'm hearing from all the reporters, Fox reporters included, it's a kind of "holier than thou" attitude, I can't really put my finger on it. It might just be frustration at seeing so much suffering, so I'm chalking up to that right now.

But I keep thinking, quit talking about it guys and go get those folks some water (also today they keep talking about people don't have water, but everyone I've seen has some sort of bottle in their hand, some even have Gatorade, so supplies are getting to them.) So when you tell me people don't have water, and I see them walking with water, you've gone from reporting to sensationalizing.
