Members Tishy Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 By 10pm EST he will be dead. CNN reported that they will view the tape and then make a decision on whether to broadcast it. But I am certain it will end up on the Internet. I am watching the news though. Regardless of your feelings, this is a newsworthy event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marilyn_M Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 If they should air it, do it on the net, not on national news. That is just a bit barbaric for tv. Oh yeah, this is history making right here; the end of a notorious dictator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 CNN just said what they may air is just him walking to the gallows, not the actual event. It all depends on the censors and things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members winterguy125 Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 Looks like he is dead, CNN is reporting that he has been hung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysnPassionsFan Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 For sure, the hanging will probably show up online. Don't the beheadings get posted online too? I think some of the Arab networks air them uncut right? But showing it on national television? Might be a little too much. Even I might change the channel. Anyway, finally Saddam is getting what he deserves. Hey, that's what you get for genocide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tishy Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 ANderson Cooper just reported that Iraq television will broadcast the entire hanging. This will be on the internet within hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rhonda37138 Posted December 30, 2006 Author Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 I wonder how much of the footage will be shown on cable or regular TV?! I'm certain we will all see him getting the rope placed around his neck and probably footage of him lying there dead. I don't think CNN or FoxNews will show the actual execution, though....but who knows? I'm thinking Hussein is in the same place Hitler is now.

Members Huntress Posted December 30, 2006 Members Share Posted December 30, 2006 I don't get why anyone outside of the Iraq would want to watch him being hanged. This is *not* entertainment or a television show, it's the cruel reality. The Iraq won't get a safe place now that's he dead - because all of his followers are very much alive, plus there are still the two religious groups fighting against each other. This whole thing can't end before one group has either left the country or is completely killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
