I feel like showing pictures of dead bodies on TV or on the Internet is really disrespectful and disturbing. At the very least, online, there should be a warning before you click about graphic images, and only people who actually want to see something like that would see it.

Two recent events come to mind: Muammar Gaddafi and Michael Jackson. I have thought I was clicking over to news stories - today just from Google News to CBS' site - and bam, pictures of corpses.

I get that we have a free press, and I totally get that we want to see proof of certain deaths, like Gaddafi or Osama Bin Laden, but it just seems like the media, especially supposedly respectable outlets like CBS, could find a way to handle these images with more dignity and warning.

All in all, I think that, as human beings, we should not desensitize ourselves to images of death, especially graphic and violent images, but these pictures, shown again and again, do just that.

Is anyone else bothered by this? Is it me or is it more prevalent these days?
