If this were a US broadcast or US cameraman, there would have already been a "technical failure" to censor that. At least those media people were dedicated to showing the truth as it happened.

iTestigo is one of my favorite spanish shows that show this kind of stuff. They're not scared of showing everyone everything. I like that.

I'm glad they didn't have enough watermarks, logos, etc. to take up the whole damn video

In 2008, during the trials for crimes against humanity that took place during the Kirchnerism government, he was again prosecuted for crimes he had supposedly committed during the Dirty War. On November 21, Gendarmería Nacional was sent to his house to arrest him. He climbed up a water tower and was followed by a TV camera crew from national news broadcaster Crónica TV. As he saw he had been surrounded by about 20 policemen, and with no intention of going back to prison, he took a gun and shot himself in the head. He had stated earlier that day that he would take any measure in order not to go to jail again. When asked if he was capable of killing himself, he said he'd do "Just like Hannibal". TV cameras captured this moment from a very close distance, as he was being interviewed and took this decision totally unexpectedly. His death was broadcast to the whole nation. He was survived by his wife and children. - "Malevo Ferreyra", Wikipedia

That nosebleed is something. Our brain holds so much blood.

First time I watched Budd Dwyer's suicide I was just staring at the amount of blood gushing out of his nose...never knew that much blood could spew out just through the nose.
