Trivia

This article may be in need of improvement.
Editors are encouraged to add any missing information to the article, while verifying that the article's current content is correct.
  • Richard Gershwin is a reporter who appears recurrently throughout the Knox Event on WBLM. He stops appearing on WBLM on the 14th night, when the main camp of Louisville is overrun, being bitten by an "infected". His last words before WBLM lost contact with him are:
O God! There's more!
The Knox Event has been compromised
Diane!
Compromised!
GO BACK TO HELL YOU SON OF A BITCH!
  • The morning after turning on the TV in WBLM Channel on July 15, another reporter that will now be transmitted is Mike during only until the afternoon of the 15th. After that, contact with him is lost, or not transmitted anymore on WLBM. Richard and Mike still don't have zombified characters that we can find them, as all the unlocked outfits indicate, and neither does Pastor Samuels yet.
