Why is leaking the video the right thing? There were multiple videos of the incident including footage from a EarthCam live camera. And the NTSB released multiple videos as part of their investigation. The video wasn't leaked in order to stop a coverup.

Because it's in the public interest. The law doesn't state what's right only what's permitted.

Isn't that an even stronger argument that the leak shouldn't be criminal?

Leaking crash footage to CNN isn't clearly "the right thing". Except for CNN I guess, who probably got a lot of views and clicks from the footage.

A lot of views from general population rather than being buried.

Are you suggesting such incidents should not be reported on or captured?
