@Fox @snottyotter agree with both of you, this bad stuff needs to be seen.
When a bomb goes off in an Iraqi market we see a few burnt out cars on the BBC or ITV, then move on to house prices or whatever like its no big deal. Watch the same story in Spain or France and you see body parts being swept up, and that stays with you the rest of the night. People don't become desensitised to those images the way I believe we do to the way these same stories are reported here.
