Should the trials of the 9/11 defendants be televised?
Should the trials of the 9/11 defendants be televised?
SAMUEL COLLIER, Beavercreek: “It’s such a touchy subject, I really don’t think it should be televised. It’s just going to be fodder for our troops overseas to deal with, and it’ll add to an atmosphere in which we’re already perceived as negative toward Islamic culture.”
FRANK GILBERT, Fairborn: “Absolutely. We were all affected that day in one way or another. The physical damage was in New York, but it was felt everywhere. People in Iowa are going to want to see justice done the same as people in Manhattan.”
DUANE ESTES, Miamisburg: “No. First of all, the trials should be held in a military tribunal, not civilian courts. We don’t need a spectacle or to give them a platform to promote.”
JOANN MILLARD, Dayton: “I don’t know why not. I’d probably watch them.”
ROBERT CAMPBELL, Springfield: “Yeah, it doesn’t matter to me. I’m not sure I’d watch it, and I’m not sure it should be in New York. I think the military should handle it..”
KIMBERLY HOPE, Cincinnati: “Yes, so the victims who were affected can let the American people know how they’re doing through their victim impact statements.”
