I guess I 'sort of' understand. If they don't get the word out that this happens, how can anyone address it and improve the situation? In some ways, similar to th puppy mill horrors, which are only just getting publicized.

And in covering a war, I believe the reporters often witness horrible things, but rarely does it get broadcast, just film clips leading up to . . . and then the aftermath.

It serves to educate the public, which is part of what journalism is about.

Sorry you had to witness it, Isabel!
