With all due respect to those who have taken a moment to share their opinions, several of which I agree, people grieve in different ways.

You are correct . The coverage of the Webster shootings (as with those of Newtown) quickly ceased being a conveyance of the news and quickly became a ghoulish and self-serving rehash of a few facts as the media paraded the victims as part of their quest for higher ratings and readership/viewership.

In the last decade the Rochester area has experienced over FOUR HUNDRED homicides. One is given to wonder why the public fixates on the deaths of two volunteer firemen, terrible as those deaths were, yet ignores the horrendous and inexcusable body count over the last 10 years.

Some news is the blues.
Some news is a ruse.

And some news is so shocking it wakes us out of localized, sleepy patterns and requires us to observe the larger movements of our society and culture. This tragedy falls into the last category and defies easy journalistic approach.

Best regards to all reporters who have struggled to both cover this painful story and help us all come to terms with its monumental sadness.
