Why US media show piles of dead bodies in Haiti won't even show flag-draped

[Sara]

coffins of US soldiers? It sickens me that the same media that will gleefully show piles of dead bodies in the streets in other countries won't even show flag-draped coffins of US soldiers returning from the middle east.

obumba,and pelosi and reid want us to be more aware of what they are doing for the light and dark skinned people of hati and much less aware of our war problems and our health care closed door negotiations..............showing only hati related problems might make some citizens forget our real problems...........BUT IN REALITY THE CORRUPTION IN HATI IS SO PREVALENT THAT NOTHING CAN HELP THEM.............LIKE RESELLING THE DONATED FOOD FOR SEX...

The rights of soldiers families should be considered, but they do show these coffins now, thanks to the Obama administrations hate for the military.

Bodies laying in the streets is a lot different. The news has to show the facts, and there is nothing more factual then that.

Showing soldiers coffins is a political ploy, showing bodies in the streets is news.

Because we've become too "politically correct" and it's destroying this country!

Because the media is controlled by the government contrary to popular belief.

If you are so fascinated with flag draped coffins, have you considered enlisting?
