ESPN is still showing the video of Kevin Ward Jr. getting run over. Why? Why do people need to see a 20 year old being killed?

But yet they won't show the Kevin Ware or Paul George injuries "out of respect"?

What makes auto racing accidents different than basketball injuries?

does it show blood? no
does it show his bones or organs? no
his he torn to shreds? no
is he decapitated? no
kevin ware's bone was sticking out of his leg. that is gruesome. ward is shown getting hit by the car and laying on the ground, nothing too gruesome.

The man was dead most likely upon hitting the ground.

You'd think they wouldn't show it at least for that.

That's the sickening part.

because that was filmed with a camera phone, which has low res compared to ESPN cameras

In the normal, censored, American media, they don't.

It's just disrespectful to the family to do that. And from ESPN and SportsCenter no less.

hmm they show dead bodies on CNN all the time.

"It's just disrespectful to the family to do that. And from ESPN and SportsCenter no less."

then isn't it disrespectful for them to show the video, even without cutting out the part where he is hit?

The Kevin Ward, Jr. video wasn't graphic at all. I don't know how people can say any viewer discretion advised of all ages when it should be for people under the age of 13-14 only.

I don't know what exactly all they showed of the video, but it is pretty graphic, because if you can't tell, his upper body is all the way turned around from his lower body at least from what I saw.

I wanted to throw up after I watched it.
