TV new should report news not try to shock people.Some people will might get scared especially young children might be affected with scary images and get nightmares. Some people can be too emotional with what they have seen  and get depressed.In fact some people and teenagers when they see these actions they might copy them such as killing people. If the report gives the information about natural disasters they should show audience exactly what is going on in the world.
