I'm not aware of any other full coverage. There will of course be some coverage on the cable/satellite news. I'm not sure I can stand their commentary and analysis.

I was too upset after listening to Elwood, her grandfather, a coworker from many years ago and friend, to come back and update.
Thanks for updating DU

(57,464 posts)that people were asked to wear something purple in remembrance. I did. I saw a few people on the Metro with a purple shirt, but that might not have had anything to do with Heather Heyer.
Thanks for the thread. I'm listening to the channel 29 video now.

Sorry if I gave the impression I was here. I left 10:45 am and returned 4 am. I'm too old and decrepit to hit the streets anyways

(17,442 posts)I still haven't recovered from that day. What has happened here hasn't helped. I am supposed to be retired, but we had no one else to go. I do like very much setting up a superb sounding PA and mixing a professional band for the most important day in peoples lives. The walking around money is nice too.
