Not true.

The same NBC, on the Today Show, has spent considerable air time doing profiles and memorials of the victims, starting before the video was even received.

Some of these have included interviews with family, friends and colleagues, which must have been very difficult for the people interviewed.

And take a look here.

So now you know too. There's lots more out there too.

What we basically know about the shooter is that he was a permanent resident, that he manifested disturbed behavior for a long time (and what all that behavior was), and quite a bit about what he did on Monday, which also includes information about his victims. We know he was a psychotic criminal. Yeah, that's "all about him", but not in the way he wanted.

It's always that way, though. We remember the names of criminals more than names of victims unless the victim was famous, because the criminals scare the hell out of us.
