Why isn’t there saturation coverage of this man? Why isn’t every paper, every website, every magazine and tv show digging into his background? Why isn’t his faith being explored and his family too? Why isn’t everyone who ever knew him being interviewed around the clock?

Liviu Librescu – as you probably know, was the Holocaust survivor, the VT professor, who protected his students so that they could escape only to be shot in the head by the gunman.

I’m not saying he has been ignored. He hasn’t. What I am saying is that we need to spend so much more time exploring his heroism, exploring his goodness, finding out the details of his life because he is a hero. Cho was evil. We need to celebrate the good. We need saturation news coverage of Liviu Librescu.
