I am extremely uneasy about censorship, and I think that it is the media's responsibility to release the photos and videos that they have. It can be done in such a way as to not slap people in the face, such as posting them on news websites rather than TV, including warnings, and blocking out people's faces if appropriate. Being graphic and disturbing are not good reasons to not make images public, particularly considering the impact this event will have on the US going forward. I understand that the victims do lose some privacy, but like it or not this was not a private tragedy, it was a very public one.
Same with the photos they are postig, it just seems like common decency to not post a photo of someone who is possibly deceased or a photo of a man with his legs missing, it shouldn't be a matter of censorship, it should be respect for those who are suffering from injuries, loss of limbs, loss of lfe of a loved one, post traumatic stress, etc. i think the photo of the blood stained street or the immediate photos of veryone swarming the victims with blood everywhere convey the severity pretty well. It's not even about privacy for me but howing some sort of empathy for the victims and how hard this will be for them to overcome while these photos are plastered everywhere
