American Journalism: As with so many other "taboos" in today's "journalism", dead bodies are now also out of the closet. Until a short time ago it was unacceptable to show the dead bodies of Americans wherever they may have died. For some reason, though not totally acceptable, it was less frowned upon to show dead foreigners.
From a local accident victim to a raging war elsewhere in the world, a journalist carefully edited out any scene involving deceased persons.
CNN was originally known as the Chicken Noodle Network and for good reason. Then the Air Florida crash into the Potomac happened as one of their crews crossed a bridge there. They were first and able to bring live coverage and all the grisly details. Their silly moniker disappeared. As far as I'm concerned, now they have it back, in spades. Scoops are recognized by competitors as good journalism. I sincerely hope that this CNN "scoop" will be absolutely condemned by all the rest of them.
