Tech shooting

Roanoke Times
I felt that this site had a lot to offer starting with videos of both the victims and the gunman. Although the site first appears to be very bland and boring if one looks you can find various things from info on the victims and their families to info on the shooter and his background. You receive inventory from the case and the room of the gunman, you can see a lot of AP videos from the site. Over all this site did not do well with the screen shot appearance but the amount of info is very extensive to a point of to much (day of the janitor) although all the stories are interesting their might have been to many sides to the story.

College Media
This site did not have as much info or the same style in fact the site was a blog in a sense to remember those who were injured and lost in the tragedy. However you are able to gain a lot of information from the site. The posts give closure to some and give places to find out more info for the ones that were lost and on the event itself. both of these sites were a little different than the other because of their focus point they did not try and show the mourning of several or place the blame on few they reported the faces with a little sympathy in a way that most of the others did not.
