I turned on CNN after the Shep segment and Blitzer was breathless in his introduction of an Superdome/Astrodome refugee. The reporter started interviewing a black guy named Lorell. They set up the piece as an interview showing the anger and despair of those that were at the Superdome.

Ol' Lorell had a big smile on his face. He thanked God, President Bush and the mayor for getting him and his family out together and safe. The CNN reporter was stunned. Stike one for CNN. It was not going as planned so he asked the man to describe his trip. Lorell praised the driver and said the ride was quite comfortable. Strike two for CNN.

CNN reporter than asked Lorell how he will survive in the Astrodome for three or four weeks. Lorell says he contacted family who were sending him money to go to South Carolina. Strike three CNN.

I tell you, I wish more people interviewed were like Lorell, my new hero.
