Epidemic, and that is very inspiring to us, to see these small news organizations that are struggling because they have lost so much advertising over the past decade, and still putting resources into this story is really important. So we cheer all those people on. Ms. Casey where does this go from here . Mr. Rosen i think the story that we did will get local television stations now to say lets cover it in our area in the bigger way. Lets not just cover the car crash or local three alarm fire, lets devote resources to this. When that happens, here is how it works in washington. Those stories happen, people at home get outraged, they call their senator and congressman, the senator and congressman look at the mail and the incoming phone list, and says oh, i better do something about that. Legislation has been proposed maybe to remedy it. Law enforcement, maybe the vote is more resources in a proper way. To theely, it goes executive branch that says this is going to be a big voting issue i

Here in the meantime is what we do know where, that ten people were killed. Six others were injured, including among them, four police officers. The gunman is in custody and wounded and made antijewish remarks, comments during the shooting. He has been identified. He is 46yearold Robert Bowers. Cnn has learned that he frequently targeted jews on social media. Particularly on a platform called gab, posting just today cant sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics. Im going in. President trump has reacted to this shooting just moments ago. With one unified voice we condemn the historic evil of
antisemitism, and every other form of evil and, unfortunately, evil comes in many forms. We come together as one american people. All right. Lets get right to the scene, and our sonja mogi, who has just arrive
We also know he can be seen as the strong and bold, also weak and fearful here. Explain whats going on.
