This info suppression is a story in itself, and the MSM should hang their heads in shame for going along with it.

Yeah but who reports that news is suppressed when it seems the media are complicit?

It's a tall order to expect the blogosphere to cope. I hope those involved in reovery efforts are keeping their own records (or copies) so they can prove their body counts.

The complete invisibility of those who were injured also puzzles me. It seems ominous. There's just this mention now and then of 'bodies' and they switch to something else.

I noticed that myself. Shepard Smith gave quite a bit of time to Mississippi at the start of his show this evening.

I thought it curious that he would be so emphatic about the sheer devastation wrought against the state, but only give passing mention to the human toll.

At one point, a reporter showed mud half a foot deep on the roadway. She said that mud was churned up sea-bottom that washed ashore. She also said the spot they were showing was TWO MILES inland!

Honestly, the whole thing reminded me of a seeBS one-hour documentary on Joe McCarthy aired few years ago.

Dan Rather spent the entire hour documenting how disliked McCarthy was without ever actually telling the viewer anything McCarthy actually did.
