About this episode

Send us a text

In this podcast we're going to dig into the background on a disturbing murder on live television that took place on the morning of August 26, 2015. News reporter Alison Parker and photojournalist Adam Ward, both employees of CBS affiliate WDBJ in Roanoke, Virginia, were fatally shot while conducting a live television interview. What was most disturbing is the killer live-streamed the shootings on Facebook. He was a former colleague who was hell-bent on getting revenge for what appears to be racism that never actually happened.  ★Enjoy!
