Reeva Steenkamp's corpse was in the morgue, her body was on the Sun's front page

1. This is why I stopped watching 'CSI' type shoes

Now I love a good detective story, (I'm very much in to Steampunk these days, I'm afraid) murder and mayhem go along with the territory. I like horror as well.

But the CSI's starting denigrating into what I started calling 'dead chick shows' so many of them were about dead sex workers, dead cheating housewives, dead naive young women, some with horrific plots. And it seemed to me there was always a glory shot, panties or some form of undergarment, posing that was at least quasi sexualized. It also seemed to me as well that there was a 'its her fault' subtext, not always and not obvious, but I finally had enough and stopped watching those shows .

This kind of coverage is the same thing--the salacious posing of the tragically dead. It pisses me off.
