War propaganda
Another example is that the Pentagon has refused to allow photos of flag draped coffins arriving at Dover airfield to be distributed. Combine this with the limited coverage of battlefield action to a few embedded reporters and you get censorship that is extensive compared to when I grew up watching the Vietnam War on TV during dinner.
My opinion is to show the harsh, unvarnished truth of all situations where humanity is so grossly affected. If the intellectual truth doesn't affect people, then perhaps the horror will.
