President Donald Trump has reversed plans to broadcast a live stream of the scheduled execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan, stating that some individuals would prefer not to watch the historic event.
The planned lethal injection by firing squad marks a significant milestone as the first military execution in more than six decades. Initially, the administration considered offering a public livestream of the proceedings.
However, citing sensitivity around the proceeding and feedback that certain observers would "rather not watch," the decision to broadcast the execution was called off.
