Virginia Tech Massacre: The Face of Evil

This is a police handout image made available this morning of Cho Seung-hui, 23. The fourth-year student from South Korea was behind the massacre of at least 30 people locked inside a Virginia Tech campus building in the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history, the university said.

DFO: On the way to work this morning, I heard a woman caution a talk-show host that parents should be careful re: exposing small children to the horrific massacre at Virginia Tech. She recommended that adults opt for a one-dimensional info source rather than TV, where small children can see it — something like radio, newspaper or the Internet. Frankly, I watched a few minutes of TV coverage, read a few things on the Internet and gardened until dark last night. I wanted to get away from the dreadful news that’s becoming too common-place today.

Question: How much time — and via which medium — did you spend watching news coverage of the Virginia Tech shootings yesterday?
