You're so right. It kinda always sounds like this:

An image of an emotionally and physically spent U.S. soldier in a bunker in Afghanistan by Britain's Tim Hetherington for Vanity Fair magazine won the top World Press Photo prize for news photography on Friday.

I hate to think that I have become desensitized to human suffering. But is not seeing it/denying it the alternative? Can there be a middle?
