Sometimes the Media can be so insensitive...or is that all the time?


 
           So, the 50th anniversary of former President John F. Kennedy’s assassination just passed on November 22 (original date was November 22, 1963 and the place was Dallas, Texas) and I feel as though the media took it way too far. I feel sorry for the family to have to watch them showing the actual video footage of President JKF being shot and dying over and over and over again. This is sad and I find it extremely sick and insensitive to the max. But that’s the media for you. If the intent was to educate, they could have placed more emphasis on the incredible thing she has done throughout his life and the impact he had on the civil rights era, which may have been why he was assassinated. I was in the grocery store yesterday and I passed the magazine rack where I saw one of the magazine covers had a front page heading the read... “Dig up JFK’s body NOW!” Here are some links to check out.....


    
          The bottom line, yes I thinks it is very necessary to review something like the death of very remarkable former president such as JFK but, being considerate to the fact that this is a person who has been laid to rest and don't forget that he has family that feels some type of way about his death and the fact that he was murdered because of the difference he was trying to make. His daughter Caroline is still alive and she has three children and I'm sure they would have preferred not to watch those disturbing recordings of the assassination over and over again.
