Why don't you just go there in person if you want to see the dead. Then again I notice that CNN the communist new network never shows what good the military does in Iraq either.

Because Al-Jazeera doesnt have affiliates over here. But the NY times is closely catching up to them! : )
The FCC has strict guidelines about how graphic the news agencies can get on the air. That is the difference between us as nations. The middle east is very violent and is very desensitized to violence. Probably part of the reason why they have a tough time condemning and stopping terrorist activities.

In another question, you asked why neocons treat their kids like crap, but yet you wish they would show pictures of dead children on the news? You wish to disrespect innocent women and children killed by ilsamo terrorists by having the picture of their dead bodies on tv? And for what? A sick form of protest against the current administration. And liberals wonder why everyone calls liberalism a mental illness.

You are probably too young to remember the Vietnam war. Nightly we were subjected to news reel footage of dead and wounded soldiers from that conflict. We also got to see the flag draped coffins of US servicemen and women being unloaded of military transports here in the United States. Why aren't we seeing this stuff now? Because the military (and the US Government) are censoring the news. Welcome to Bush's vision of America...scary isn't it?

Our media seems to like airing anything that makes the current administration look bad. Therefore the lack of such photo's in the news leads me to believe our media doesn't have them. That means either they aren't out taking photo's, or there aren't as may to take as you seem to believe. Take your pick.

Because the news is produced by ultra-conservative corporations. They dont want to erode support for Bush's war.

They are, just not so much from the US news media.
Furthermore, most of them were killed by the insurgents. Heaven forbid the news media decides to admit that! Why, that would mean that those terrorists really ARE bad people! Imagine that...

You sure are a gory person.
Go hang out around a funeral home.
Are you talking about all the children and babies that the terrorists killed?

Because there aren't any, according to the government.
(Seriously, I know what you mean. I guess the media is squeamish about showing another horrible aspect of war)
