CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Genocide School

NBC's Mike Taibbi continued the dogged task of reconstructing the life of the accused killer. He went through 50 pages on Loughner's life as a student from Pima County Community College and found complaints of creepy behavior, jittery eyes, confused looks, bizarre talk. "My genocide school," Loughner called the college on YouTube. "Why did Loughner want to kill Rep Giffords?" asked ABC's Pierre Thomas plaintively, as he replayed 911 dispatch audiotapes from that day. "Police, friends and neighbors say we may never know why this happened."

Tuesday, Taibbi had been critical: "How could the parents of Jared Loughner have been unaware of what their only child was thinking and allegedly planning living in the same house?" Upon further reporting, Taibbi's tone has moderated. He covered the visit of Eric Fuller, one of the 13 Loughner wounded, to the family home to offer his forgiveness. He quoted Loughner's aunt pleading for forgiveness or at least compassion for the man's parents: "They have to live with this for the rest of their lives."
