Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott requested that media outlets not show footage of the collapse to avoid traumatizing the community.

It wasn't the Maryland governor who made this request. It was Baltimore's mayor, Brandon Scott. His comments were directed towards media outlets like CNN, not social media, and the reason he gave was, quote, no one needs to see the possibility of their family member being severely injured or otherwise over and over again. It's just traumatizing our community.
