At this point, what's gone on at the center of New Orleans outside that dome and that convention center is nothing to be proud of and what I find amazing is that the news reporters are all over that place - have they outsmarted FEMA?

What I'm curious about is whether these news crews take in water & food with them and bring out a few people when they come back out.

Meanwhile, the female co-anchor of WWL-TV just quoted scripture on live TV. Guess she just lost all her ACLU browie points.

" and bring out a few people when they come back out."


I heard several reporters say that they had given people rides - and dropped them off at the ramp or the SD or the Convention Center.

I never heard anybody say they'd gotten anybody out of the city.

I've seen them offer water. I just saw a reporter who found a dog, scared and in shock alone on a bridge, he offered it water but the dog was freaking out, afraid.

I would hope the news trucks (if they have resources) load their trucks to the max with supplies.

They are definitely getting to the people in dire need.
