Granted, most of the younger generation would be unphased by seeing the deaths because they've grown up with the desensitizing violent movies, "reality" cop shows, etc., but most of the older generation doesn't need visuals in order to grasp the situation.
It's a shame that CNN is falling into the trap of sensationalism.
