It's not censorship, it is bad editorial policy.

Maybe. I've got a friend that was interning at the hospital nearest WTC (sorry, name escapes me). I've heard some pretty gruesome accounts of Ground Zero. I've also heard and read accounts that tell me a lot of that debris flying through the air when the planes hit was peole parts. IMHO I can fully remember the horrors of the day and stay committed to the fight against terrorism WITHOUT barfing all over my TV. Others might not and are more than welcome to seek more gruesome coverage. It's an editorial decision, only the ratings will tell us for sure if it's good or bad.

The repeated airings are desensitizing many of the viewers. The tragic event is becoming less tragic in their minds as a result. I think Fox is doing the right thing because of this.

I also think that there are certain broadcasters and viewers who get the same charge out of this video that people get there's a wreck at a NASCAR event. I, for one, don't want any more of this.
