Item: UK Channel to Show Diana Crash Photos …

... Princes William and Henry say it shows "gross disrespect to their mother's memory"/Associated Press

DFO: I'm with the princes on this one. I remember seeing a photo of my father's crushed pickup after he was killed in an October 1976 wreck. No body. Just the cab. I looked at it once. I still have it. Mebbe I'll look at it again sometime. I understand, of course, why journalists snap shots of such breaking news. But I also know firsthand how those photos impact the surviving family. The UK station that plans to air Diana's death scene are a discredit to the profession.
