#SayTheirNames
From: NewNowNext
Orlando police have identified the 49 mostly LGBT people whose lives were tragically lost Saturday night when a gunman opened fire at Pulse nightclub, committing the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.

National news outlets did their best to tell the individual stories of each of the victims, turning attention away from the killer, who took his own life during the assault.

On Twitter, Anderson Cooper has been sharing the names of the deceased as they are released. He tweeted that he’d be reporting from Orlando  and “won’t be showing the killer’s picture or using his name.”
