Shootings in the Media

I was very shocked by the double murders on live television. I actually saw the video of the shooting and it gave me chills. As a viewer you know how the story ends so it's very tragic to see Alison Parker and Adam Ward just doing their normal everyday jobs with no idea that they were living their final moment on Earth. It's very disturbing to realize that the last moments of their lives are being posted for the world to see. As a viewer, I felt the urge to somehow warn them or to give them some type of signal to let them know what was about to happen. This is a feeling I am sure many other viewers experienced. Personally speaking, I have never seen anything like that before. I've never actually witnessed anyone being shot at, let alone murdered. I think the fact that this video is being broadcasted for the world to see is disrespectful on many levels. If I were to be shot at I would not want the crime being played on loops for the world to see. I feel that people should not focus on the very last moments of the lives of Alison Parker and Adam Ward. It is very tragic to witness how frightened Alison Parker was at the moment she was targeted.
I think that these type of stories should not be constantly hyped up. With the killer being identified, I don't see why news channels like CNN feel the need to continuously show the video. They are not showing the video to catch the murderer. It seems like the video is being shown to draw in more viewers rather to actually inform people. I strongly believe the media should take into consideration the feelings of the families of the victims. Surely no parent wants to turn on the television and see the murder of their child. No parent wants to constantly see their child gunned down every time they switch on the television or log on to the internet. The media needs to understand that these were real people. These were humans and they should be remembered as such, not as double homicide victims.
