On the morning of August 26, 2015, news reporter Alison Parker and photojournalist Adam Ward, both employees of CBS affiliate WDBJ in Roanoke, Virginia, United States, were fatally shot while conducting a live television interview near Smith Mountain Lake in Moneta. They were interviewing Vicki Gardner, executive director of the local chamber of commerce, when all three were attacked by a gunman. Parker, age 24, and Ward, age 27, died at the scene, while Gardner survived.
The gunman was 41-year-old Vester Lee Flanagan II, a former reporter at WDBJ who had been fired in 2013 for disruptive conduct.[6] After a five-hour manhunt, Flanagan shot himself during a car chase with police officers and died later at a hospital.
Here's from the LIVE TV perspective (has been posted already here):

situational awareness? So they're supposed to be watching constantly for someone shooting them during a normal local news color piece? Lol, this isn't a Chinese factory where there's someone driving a forklift.

Yep... I was a television photojournalist for 20+ years and most guys would shoot with their free eye closed. I learned how to shoot with both of them open for reasons like this. Plus the shooter was a former reporter. He knew he could exploit their lack of awareness. Thats why he shows off the gun prior to shooting them.
