CNN claims Thai officials allow them on massacre siteCNN claims that they were allowed to report from inside the Nong Bua Lam Phu day care centre, the scene of the mass shooting of dozens of children last Thursday, following outrage among media organisations and online. While filming, three public health officials exiting the building spoke to the team and told them they could film inside. Would one of their crews have behaved in the same way at a serious crime scene in the United States?” asked the statement. CNN, said Teeranai, has set a bad example for the other media organisations regarding professional reporting ethics. Meanwhile, Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn, the deputy national police chief, said that the conduct of the CNN crew could be constituted as intrusion into the crime scene and interfering with evidence.
