And another, the hundreds of bodies stacked up in the deep freeze in the Superdome.

Many liberals still believe every lie to come out of N.O.

Here is a link to an EXCELLENT editorial about the media's handling of Katrina. Unfortunately it is from Bloomberg, so it can't be posted here.

And Shep Smith said there were baby bodies along side of the roads, and that people asked him and his crew for water but they did not give any.

As far as the looting/foraging goes, IMO, food & water/supplies=foraging. ANYTHING else = looting.

Are we to believe that no crime occured at the Superdome?

"Thousands dead, more than 9/11, bodies in trees..."

[johnny7]

Helicopters were being fired at, which led to a stand down till it became clear that it was untrue.

I remember this clearly being of major concern at the time(would love to know who it came from!)... and that boatowners were being prevented from going out on search and rescue missions.

it wasn't negligence, it was Nagingence

[ozzymandus]

It would make a much shorter list to just ask, "What truths did the media tell?"

[hole_n_one]

Although this on scene report was related to flooding caused by storms in the Northeast rather than Katrina, it certainly illustrates the lengths the msm will go to hype a story......

[ozzymandus]

The only looting story I saw more than once was two black female cops looting a Wal-Mart.

[Michael Goldsberry]

Doc, here's the looting/finding one.

[cincinnati65]

The story I recall was that there was a jail break and the prisoners had taken over a hospital/retirement home with weapons looted from a local pawn shop.

Oh, the best has to be the poverty pimp who reported that after only a few days people had resorted to CANNIBALISM. That was a good one!

[Darnright]

When the hurricane was still out in the ocean, there was a live feed here on FR from a New Orleans tv station. The anchors had Ray Nagin in the studio.

I will never, ever forget the anchor asking him if there were plans to go into the poor areas and get people evacuated. His answer was telling.

I can't remember the exact words, but he basically shook his head, and said there was no way to evacuate the people. HE WAS ASKED why buses or cars couldn't be sent in, and he said, even if transportation was provided, the people would not go.

I guarantee that video tape has been destroyed by now.

[The Worthless Miracle]

Well, they sure haven't wasted any time handing out the awards for journalistic excellence to themselves...

[syriacus]

Aaron Broussard's lies about phone calls from an elderly woman in a nursing home were not challenged by Tim Russert, even though it's likely that, in a subsequent show, Russert knew Broussard was lying.

A. Broussard started telling his story
And cried when the tale got real gory.
Russert, barely awake,
Was taken in by this fake
.... Yet, Tim STILL won't admit that he's sorry.

Russert could not pass up another opportunity to tar and feather the president.
