I recall with satisfaction to a time when I was about 18. A family trip found me at a US Civil War battlefield and a curator was pointing at an old building she claimed to have been commandeered as a field hospital at some point after a particularly nasty battle. To shock the crowd she recounted written descriptions of how doctors would perform surgery as quickly as they could on the many wounded, hacking limbs off and simply tossing the discarding masses of flesh outside via the nearest window.
The first time I learned about mastectomies I was probably about 12 or 13. This is a simple procedure where the female breast is hacked off usually because of some nominal malady like a cancerous infection. Thanks to Sports Illustrated and Monte Python’s: The Meaning of Life I had developed certain tastes. It was only at this point when I was 18 I could put the two together finally: having bad luck with procuring live visual events and the unappealing nature of expensive pay-form venues I reckoned there was a feasible alternative. My hometown was a regional center for health care in the Midwest, but was a relatively small city with a very laid back police and lax security at most commercial establishments. Needless to say how things went down, it certainly made me a happy boy.

CNN: The Most Trusted Name in News shows a jovial ape on a video titled "Aftermath of explosion" at Burt Rutan's spaceport in the Mojave desert airfield.
The did this instead of showing the aftermath of the explosion, why? I do not know.
If a reader of the news site was serious about the information therein, why would they want to see some damn ape instead of footage of an explosion site?
The article is titled Blast at desert spaceport kills 3. When you click to see serious footage about a serious topic (people's death) you are treated to footage of a laughing ape with a blond beach bum dictating house building directions.
Why is CNN appearing to be dishonest in their links to video feeds...

Per settlement, the following transcript is required to appear prominently on RETRAN.COM
{conversation between "customer" and ReTran USA award winning service department}
Customer:
Is ReTran USA aware that CafePress products require that a vendor provide high resolution images so the logos do not look pixilated on the clothing?
Customer Service Dept:
If you don’t like them, just purchase one for full price some place else.
Customer:
No, I didn’t mean to... I was just suggesting!...
Customer Service Dept:
[interrupts customer] Maybe we’ll just intercept the package before it arrives so you wont be able to have your maternity shirt before your scheduled abortion.
Customer:
Please, I need it!
[Editor]:
That is right. If you submit proof that you or a close friend or mate is scheduled for an abortion, ReTran USA will supply you with a high-quality Maternity fitted shirt with a pixilated face on it from The ReTran USA Profit Website. Just email abortion@retran.com for details.
