Another Question: Violence on TV

Of course, I'm not talking about the fake kind. That seems to have won the day. Rather, I'm talking about the real kind. News worthy kind, mainly. With ISIS in the news, using violence as a means to reach people, and news outlets making cases for not showing much of this, one has to wonder if this censorship (that's what it is, whether or not it has a higher purpose) is right.
This is not to say that all should be shown on TV (for whoever watches the news there), because that tends to be a medium that dictates what you see, but on the internet sites. Shouldn't there be, with ample warning, a link to see what's happening in the world? Or is this something that should be relegated to the darker parts of the internet (or should even that choice be taken away). There are many ways to look at this. I, for one, don't think we should make the judgement call based on what what some people seem to think are videos that would titillate a subsection of the population. If the judgement is made, shouldn't it be made on behalf of those who are normal and are shocked by such images?
This is not to say that I have some rosy view of the world and people's reactions to such videos. Rather that, taking into account that there are various ways power likes to use such images/videos, we need to discuss this and not say that violent images don't serve a purpose. They have been used to point out atrocities in the world, and the horror in them has enacted change (for the better, I would say). 
In fact, I would say that many people who are in the business of doing vile acts, do so and don't want anyone to see the images. This censorship only allows more of the same. So what then of ISIS, who wants people to see these heinous acts which they commit? It's very apparent that they want to be on the news. But how much recruiting are they doing with these videos? And how much have they helped their cause? The biggest thing is that they seem to have used these to goad as many people in the world into a fight.
