CBS to show photos of Princess Diana at crash scene
LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Never-before seen photos of Britain's Princess Diana at the scene of the Paris car crash in which she died are to be broadcast on U.S. television Wednesday night.

CBS television said it obtained photos of the critically injured princess taken after the August 1997 fatal car crash along with information from a secret 4,000-page French report on the accident.


I'm on the west coast and this hasn't been on yet. I don't know if I should watch or not. My curiosity may get the better of me.

3. Maybe we should
start all having cameras in our vehicles so that if we are involved in a wreck and are horribly mangled and killed, the tape will be ready for prime time tv.
Hey, we could even have "baby cams" come as standard equipment on carseats.

We could call it the "Ultimate Reality Show"

7. A lot of hype about nothing....I saw the show and
the "Never-before seen photos of Britain's Princess Diana at the scene of the Paris car crash in which she died" are nothing more than a small, grainy, black and white picture which shows Diana in the car with a few sort of scratches on her face....The picture is not disturbing at all....

8. They wanted people to think they'd see a disturbing photo
It got you to tune in, anyway.

Please ask yourselves whether the BBC would stoop this low.

9. Pics of bare breasts = bad; pictures of dying people = good.
I'm glad we have our priorities straight.

11. I don't want to EVER see those photos~
Sorry I LOVE PRINCESS DIANA, and I cried for 3 days on and off when she died. I don't ever want to see those pictures, it would break my heart.

12. I must confess
I did watch, but the pictures were not all that clear. They were black and white and all you could see was the side of her face and her blond hair.
