Sandy Hook: ABC Nightly News Had Adam Lanza Among Its “cast” 2 Days Before Massacre

“All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances….”

-William Shakespeare, As You Like It, Act II, Scene VII

The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) is an online database of information related to films, television programs, and video games, including cast, production crew, fictional characters, biographies, plot summaries, and reviews. Actors and crew can post their own résumé and upload photos of themselves for a yearly fee. U.S. users can also view over 6,000 movies and television shows from CBS, Sony, and various independent film makers.

In 1998, IMDb became a subsidiary of Amazon.com. As of January 18, 2015, IMDb had 3,156,631 titles (includes episodes) and 6,329,543 personalities in its database, as well as 58 million registered users and is an Alexa Top 50 site.

The Cambridge Dictionary defines the noun “cast” as “all the actors in a movie, play, or show.” 

It is curious, to say the least, that IMDb has a listing for an episode of ABC World News Tonight which has among its “cast” Adam Lanza — the alleged mass murderer of 20 children and 6 adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut on December 14, 2012 — as well as several Sandy Hook teachers and parents.

More curious still, the episode is identified as airing on Dec. 12, 2012, two days before the massacre.

Here’s a screenshot I took of the IMDb page which shows the date (2/11/2015) and time (4 PM) when I accessed it — in case IMDb scrubs the page — followed by a description.
