This is beyond fucked up. As someone who works in television with a sports reporter for a wife, this better not turn into the next fucking thing to do.

Random angry gunman, or something to say about the news? If it was a statement, he should have gunned down some people at the cable news station (I don't know how I'd feel about that). I can't see any reason for someone to be angry at local fluff news.

Absolutely tragic.
All the reports I'm seeing are that the camera man and reporter were killed. And that was the shooter that was shown in the clip as the camera went to the ground?

Surreal. I mean, you see this in movies, but that image was the last thing that a real person saw in their lifetime.

These things are almost never random. Hopefully they'll be able to figure out who this is. At least they got at least a partial image of the guy.

Not much seems to be known about the condition and well-being of the lady who was being interviewed. Her account of what happened would be hard to imagine.

Seeing Twitter reports that the gunman may be a former station employee
Dex14 beat me to it.
