The media handled this about as poorly as possible. Let's review:
We hear reports of a shooter at You Tube. The shooter is a white male; likely targeting an ex-girlfriend. Then word leaks out, no the shooter is NOT a male. So it's a white female, likely targeting an ex boyfriend. Later on, we see the shooter is clearly not white, so the reporting is just a "woman" (it was OK to previously mention race, but not once its apparent the shooter wasn't white).
Then we find out there was no ex boyfriend; the woman had no connection at all to any of the victims. She wasn't even from the Bay area. She was just an unhinged lunatic with an axe to grind against You Tube.
Nice work.
