The point is that pushing the safety issue as justification for putting
these videos on a public site is a known tool for those who wish to show
crash videos simply for their entertainment value.


One question. Is "entertainment" the same as "interest"?

A crash, particularly at an airshow, is reported widely. People will be
interested in seeing the pictures as well as reading about it and about
what happened. You could say that this is what television news is all
about as opposed to perhaps radio news. Isn't it human nature to want
to see pictures and/or video of something to try and understand it better,
even if for interest's sake?
