It's great that FNC is getting the story out, but this was actually broken on CNN five days ago. Marty Evans, the president of the Red Cross, told the exact same thing to Larry King on his Friday show. I guess it is an indication of how few people watch Larry King that everyone is taking this as a just breaking story.

Drudge can't be easily ignored, even by the MSM. They're so busy trying to nail down the impeachment of GWB that they aren't paying attention to the true story coming out. This story is blowing up in the left's/MSM's face big time.

Partial transcript of LKL 9/2/05..........

KING: We're back.

Joining us now in Washington is Marty Evans, the President and CEO of the American Red Cross. She traveled with the president today. The Red Cross is not in New Orleans, why?

EVANS: Well, Larry, we were asked, directed by the National Guard and the city and the state emergency management not to go into New Orleans because it was not safe. We are not a search and rescue organization. We provide shelter and basic support and so we were depending, we are depending on the state and the agencies to get people to our shelters in safe places.

Larry who on where?

Marty Evans, the president of the Red Cross, told the exact same thing to Larry King on his Friday show....Thanks for posting this. I saw the Fox story and was skeptical, since no source was cited either for the Red Cross or the State. Looks like the story is spot-on true. (Paging Nancy Pelosi!)

I disagree. I see it as an indication that the people who watch Larry King, and Larry King's network, have no interest in pursuing this story because it implicates Blanco instead of Bush.
