The MSM Wants To Show Bodies Now - Where Were They On 9/11?
Topics: Political News and commentaries
[Image - Do you remember this photograph? In the United States, people have taken pains to banish it from the record of September 11, 2001. The story behind it, though, and the search for the man pictured in it, are our most intimate connection to the horror of that day.]
Michelle Malkin writes, "So the MSM wants to see Katrina-related bodies?" Like John Hinderaker at Powerline offers:
THE PRESS WANTS TO SHOW BODIES from Katrina. It didn't want to show bodies, or jumpers, on 9/11, for fear that doing so would inflame the public.AS to whether or not the MSM's wish to show bodies of Katrina victims is to inflame the public, it's difficult to believe that they would want to do so for any other reason except to inflame the public and politicize the dead - in a manner not unlike the over-hyped coverage and anti-administration rhetoric we've seen so far from both print and aired media covering the natural disaster.
I can only conclude that this time around, the press thinks it's a good thing to inflame the public. What could the difference be?

Michelle Malkin nails it in Never, Never Forget. I am so proud of her work here. I never understood, until now, why we wereprotectedprevented from seeing the horror of men and women in the WTC leaping to their death.Now the MSM, appears to have an agenda and wants to show us the dead in New Orleans, just as they would love to show us the dead soldiers' coffins arriving from Iraq.
Enough! We were attacked and we should never forget. Let's get the job done.
The point is powerfully supported in a piece that, as Michele Malken suggests, "The Falling Man" is not only a must read, but a must re-read!
Be sure and read all of the links. Then think about the MSM's reason for wanting to show bodies of Katrina victims, and their total discounting of the images of 9/11.
Why is it that our MSM finds it so hard to support America and our love for it, when the very freedom that provides them the opportunity to be so very critical of America and discount any element of patriotism for it, is made available to them only by the standards of our great nation?
Why is it that the underlying credo of the MSM is based upon anything anti-administration and anti-patriotic, and nothing other than 'Left' of center?
