JetBlue flight passengers and the live CNN feed of their crash-landing

We don't doubt that the crew of JetBlue flight 292 made the right call when they decided to shut off anything that they thought might potentially interfere with communications during yesterday's emergency landing at LAX, but by also shutting off DirecTV (which they offer in every seat) in the last few minutes before the plane "touched" down, they spared passengers the creepily recursive prospect of watching their own crash-landing live on satellite TV. Thankfully no one was hurt in the whole ordeal.
