    Kind of reminds me of the Virginia Tech mass murderer. Sending manifestos to news organizations. There's some sick people in this world. One thing sets them off and they go ballistic.

    News anchors often go by different names that sound better for news. Several local Houston anchors go by different names (other than their birth names). Andy Cerota is one I think.
