A recent piece about the Knoxville, TN church shooting stated:

Adkisson "stated that he had targeted the church because of its liberal teachings and his belief that all liberals should be killed because they were ruining the country, and that he felt that the Democrats had tied his country's hands in the war on terror and they had ruined every institution in America with the aid of the major media outlets," Investigator Steve Still wrote.

Would be interesting to see how conservative blogs/news sources, which were among the first to react to this story when it broke, are changing their tone or dropping the story altogether as more details like these ("gunman was fan of Ann Coulter," etc.) come to light. Anyone noticed this or tracked it?
