Now, from a historical point of view, it was somewhat interesting. But, on the other hand, the horrible events just happened 2 (?) weeks ago!!! Just a wee bit tacky on the History Channel's part, imnsho.

Needless to say, I didn't sleep well that night.



Anyone else see this as well?

I didn't see that but are you really surprized? It is more about ratings and who gets the most viewers and dollars vs. who may be offended by the shock factor of it all. The History Channell is not much different than all the other broadcasters and news hounds who are all about the almighty dollar. Those families of the victims must be horrified and justifiably so.

I see this a station jumping on something like this so quickly, which has already been all over the media, as thoughtless. Soon they will rate right up there with 'rag' magazines.
