WDBJ cameraman Trevor Fair recalled others using the term “field” around Flanagan: “We would say stuff like, “The reporter’s out in the field.’ And he would look at us and say, ‘What are you saying, ‘cotton fields”?” “They campaigned for me when I ran for the House of Delegates”.

The parting words that Vester Lee Flanagan said to former colleague Adam Ward, the cameraman killed in this week’s on-air shooting in Virginia, might have been prompted by Ward’s decision to film Flanagan being fired from their news station two years ago, court records suggest. Tim Gardner was speaking about his wife Vicki telling him Thursday, after she awoke from a medically induced coma, that she saw Alison Parker and Adam Ward get shot and killed, and then she was shot.
