If they're really the liberal media, they should show the full monty.

If the corporate media has the balls, they should show the entire hanging:

Though it was not known whether images of the execution would be released, the news divisions at ABC and CBS said that, should video become available, they will show some visual documentation of Saddam’s death but will not use overly graphic images or show complete execution.

Seriously, if I were to run a cable tv news network, I would run the footage. This is the public interest and a bloody civic duty. Yes, there should be warning about the footage but there would be no cuts at all. Uncut, uncensored, that's what I like the "mainstream media" to show the execution. If they can sensentionalize a sex scandal or Natallee Hollyway they should have the balls to show the entire execution of Saddam.
