I agree that the press needs to show some restraint here, but I just finished reading an article about the recovery of the Challenger victims, and I wouldn't trust NASA as far as I could throw them. Even the families back in 1986 were treated badly when it came to the recovery efforts -- NASA spent weeks denying that the crew cabin was even intact after the shuttle broke apart, when a lot of people knew damned well that it had hit the water in one piece.

CNN reporting that the leg of one astronaut was found..
IDIOTS!!!
When my step-daughter was killed in a car accident, the local newspaper incorrectly reported it.
They printed pure bs.
Point is, the families are going to go bizzak over this sensationalist muckraking idiocy!

I remember that regarding NASA's shoddy treatment of the relatives, however somebody needs to check the b-roll before they run it. I don't think it is proper to see human hair attached to the interior of a helmet on live television.
