my grandfather was aboard that plane.
all i am doing is trying to find a news channel that isnt showing clips of the crash, animated clips of a plane crashing into the corner of the screen, or the dead bodies for my grief stricken mother to get some news about her father.

i have to depend on the news and on social media rn. when they use phrases like "zindagi ka chirag bhuj gaya" and "seconds from meeting their families" while my mother is waiting to hear any news of my grandfather, it tears her apart.
please stop sensationalizing our grief

if a grieving family has to watch the news on mute to get some news about their loved one & ask the vulnerable to turn away from the screen so that if there is any news you can tell them without them suffering through hours of sensational footage, you're doing something wrong.

for anyone still here and still on this thread, please help me spread this to all those who need it
