August 26, 2015, Moneta, VA.  WDBJ-TV news reporter Alison Parker, 24 and cameraman Adam Ward, 27 were gunned down by a disgruntled former reporter named Bryce Williams.  (Real name:  Vester Flanagan.)  Williams/Flanagan posted a cell-phone video of the murders on his Twitter and Facebook accounts.  The shooting was also captured on live television.  Williams/Flanagan attempted suicide and is in critical condition.  (He has since died.)  The reported motive for the killings is that Williams/Flanagan believed that Ms. Parker and/or Mr. Ward were racists.  The news station has denied this.
