Families cancel NBC appearances over gunman video - Yahoo! News

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Some family members of the victims killed at Virginia Tech university canceled interviews with NBC on Thursday because the television network aired video and photographs of the killer it received in the mail.
Police handling the investigation into the shooting also expressed disappointment at the airing of the images and rants by Cho Seung-Hui, who killed 32 people and then himself in the worst shooting rampage in modern U.S. history.

kudos to them....

""This is I think as close as we will ever come to being inside of the mind of a killer, and I thought that it needed to be released," he said on MSNBC. "Pretty much every single news organization all around the world has made the same decision, that it was appropriate to release this information.""

They air that crap ASAP for ratings, regardless of the content, bleeping out the S-bombs and F-bombs, but fired Imus for speaking his mind.

Make you think. (yeah, that they're assholes)

Think it's more of a Respect to the families Issue, rather then a "too much for TV" Issue..

My theory on the shooting is that the kid tweeked out and shot those two students in the dorm room. Then he realized what he did, and said, "Oh crap, I'm gonna go to jail and/or get the death penalty because of this...hmm...well, since I killed already, might as well make it a media circus!! Make some homemade tapes, and go out in a blaze of glory, could be a fun time!!"

I donno, I might be speaking out of my hind end, but it seems to me that he killed the group of students because he just plain didn't care at that point. He knew he was gonna die anyway, so what did he have to lose?

[Josephd14]

The first 2 I believe they found to have been a diversion, He was hope the police would be so busy over there he would have more time to kill more students across campus..

Oh, alrighty, figured I'd ask. I wasn't privy to a lot of information. I tried to put the pieces together with the information that I had.

[Josephd14]

I'm not sure if that is true, Just kinda what I heard through 6th person comments.. I kinda just drown out most of the news when it comes to that, kinda like the Iraq war.. I'll go find out the info I want on my own, rather then take so called "fact" from a one sided media..
