How does Univision get away with showing dead bodies?

All the English news stations show a white sheet covering a dead body, but never have I seen them show the dead body. Is it just me?

I've been watching Univision since I started dating my wife and, ya, I was always like "WHOA WAIT WTF?!" when they'd show dead bodies.

Those are quick shots and well after primetime. The World News on Univision, when most of these clips are shown, is at 4:30 and 7:30.

I'll tell you what though, that chin job Don Francisco got made the F'r look 5 years younger. Gano Gano Gano!!!!!

They show lots of dead people in africa. Just not politically important dead people.

I remember reading somewhere they showed the area where the people who jumped from the WTC on 09/11 hit the ground...:Q
