Regardless of any financial gain (or whatever other motives) you may have from posting these videos to your site I have to give you props for making them available. I can understand CNN and other news organizations not wanting to run them on TV but what's keeping them from posting them to their websites with full warning of content from both the TV and web side?
It's not about gore or use of the images for entertainment. It's about not sugar-coating the realities. I'm pretty sure if Saddam and company had released daily videos back in their extermination days they would have never remained in power until last year.
People have many ideas how things should be run. I think we
all should have the right to see the results of the paths chosen for us as well as ignore it on any level most comfortable. I won't pretend to be even remotely qualified to choose your level and you are nowhere in touch with me enough to choose mine.
Sugar coat cereal, not the truth. You go, Rick Latona
