What the hell is offensive about showing a dead body? This is only the second dead body that I've seen during the entire coverage...the other came from the Commie News Network of all places.
It seems that there were some on here taking down MFH yesterday by demanding proof of the thousands of dead bodies he alleged...and now that there are actually some pictures providing at least anecdotal proof....that this killer storm did in fact take lives....you are going after Shep.
Pretty freaking incredible. This is reality folks. People died down there...
No...as I said to begin with, I understand that death is a part of this story; I understand that we are going to see dead bodies as a part of this story. I have steeled myself for that eventuality.
However, Smith's report looked staged to obtain maximum dramatic effect.
That, and only that, is what I have a problem with.
I understand that people died. I am still worried about my own relatives down there. I have other friends and relatives who are either there or have gotten out already. I understand, painfully well, what is going on. But I do not appreciate staged news, regardless of whether it comes from CNN, MSNBC, the alphabet networks, or Fox.
It was obvious to me -- as a former broadcaster myself -- that he staged that shot. He did it for effect. And that was wrong.
