Oprah cancels Columbine episode

The 10th anniversary of the Columbine shootings in Littleton, Colo. is today and Oprah Winfrey was going to air a special episode titled "10 Years Later: The Truth about Columbine." After viewing the episode, Winfrey has decided to cancel the airing saying it focused too much on the killers, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold said the Associated Press. Winfrey's company, Harpo Productions, confirmed the announcement.

Some Twitterers support Winfrey's decision:

1. 
   shanna503 @Oprah I think that is very thoughtful of you!
2. 
   katriord So @oprah cancelled her Columbine show today and announced it on Twitter. That's actually a good use of Twitter, and probably a good call.
3. 
   maggienoble @Oprah can't even imagine what the families have gone through. Good move on your part. ; )
4. 
   twogirls612 @Oprah Thank you - I think too much emphasis is placed on the event rather than the victims.
5. 
   umalum @Oprah Your consideration of the victims and their families is what makes you a special TV personality!
6. 
   Paisano I applaud @Oprah for canceling special show on Columbine. The names of Killers should never be mentioned again. http://bit.ly/18yotY

While others feel the update would have been useful:

1. 
   Msbluntmaster @Oprah You do such GREAT WORK LADY "O", I do hope you decide to show the Columbine show at a later time!? Can't believe it's been 10 years:(
2. 
   zum31 I was looking forward to trying to understand Columbine better,maybe? But,I understand Oprah's reasoning
3. 
   brittharris Just saw that Oprah pulled the Columbine show for today. Was really looking forward to that show. Oh well, wonder what will go in its place.
4. 
   dustyballz I think it's a bummer oprah cancelled her columbine show. I didn't know about it until now, so I would have missed it anyway.
5. 
   surfcitymom @Oprah you pulled the show? I was planning on catching this show just to see how people are processing Columbine; how are folks coping?

An episode slated for Tuesday on a mother being released from prison after three years will air instead. Winfrey urges everyone to keep Columbine in their thoughts today.

Ten years ago, Harris and Klebold went on a shooting rampage killing 12 of their classmates and a teacher. They also injured 23 others before turning their guns on themselves. The attack is the fourth deadliest school massacre in the U.S. and the deadliest for a high school.

Coachella Rocks All Weekend

The annual Coachella Music and Arts Festival concluded Sunday after three days worth of performances from M.IA., The Cure, The Killers--even Paul McCartney.

Coachella represents the first successful music event of 2009 in light of tough economy, reports the New York Times.

Said promoter Paul Tollett: “Anyone that has a business in 2009 is just trying to make sure that you dodge a bullet. But this went beyond that. We’re super happy.”

Twitterers seemed just as pleased:

1.
