Remember, you are talking about FOX! They probably love it. There was a report of an official..don't remember the title, that was trapped in the convention center and was begging for rescue. Might have been Secretary of State. Has anyone heard anymore about that person?

I believe it was a female member of Spanish Parliament or such..I thought they got out I also thought there were tons of NG right there at the Convention Center and peace was restored..

A Spanish official on the second floor. The report orginated on scanner traffic (I heard it with my own ears), and no mention of it ever made the media, AFAIK. Also, no resolution, AFAIK.

Likewise the report of people being pinned down by sniper fire in Chalmette. Not sure if it's a rumor or fact, but it was reported as fact by the cable stations. No closure on that story either.

It's going to be a week or more before that boiling kettle is simmered down, and alot of innocent people are going to be dying in the meanwhile. They need help, and it breaks my heart that thugs and evil and human limitations (unable to sort out turf between politicans, officials, policy and procedure, etc.) are just not up to a disaster of this magnitude.

It was some Spanish under secretary of state--not the top level but the second tier person.
