2) Television- ABC News
In this ABC news video, it shows the background story of the killer, James Holmes. Holmes was a very smart, happy student so they are wondering what happened with this kid that appeared normal. They also speak about his major transformation over the years from a normal teenage boy to a crazy colored hair killer. Towards the end they touch on the suspicious evidence against the suspect. Apparently Holmes had recently tried to go to shooting range and purchase a weapon but was rejected because his answering machine was "to freaky and bizarre".
3) Blog- Politico
After James Holme's parents had not come out to the media to discuss the tragedy, a recent blog posted on Politico has the statements said by Holme's mother. She reports that ABC News misinterpreted her statement claiming "You have the right person". She did not mean they had the right person for all of the killings, making ABC News do more investigations on the story.
There is also comments from many Facebook users on this blog expressing there opinions about the situation and even criticizing the source, ABC News!
4) Social network- Facebook
