The poster of this thread has long-proven his credibility in FR. He has never posted lies or outrageous statements, claiming them to truth.

You seem to think that anonymously posting a hearsay account is more reliable than our vulturous national media. You will recall that on 9/11, they didn't shut off the cameras. Plenty to horrify there too. They're liberals, sure, but their most basic attribute is that they are vultures. And they're hungry for ratings.

Law enforcement routinely hides information from the citizenry....they don't think people can handle truth....that it makes matters more panicy...I disagree with their doing that, but they do. I have no doubt that either the editors or journalists have had their arms twisted to not speak out about this yet, either by LE or their management.

Wrong; I am closely associated with the workings of Law Enforcement. Withholding information is routinely done, every day; I know, because Law Enforcement dispatches that I see and hear are withheld, for the very reasons I just cited.

Your reality is obviously a fictional account.

You need look no further than California - they'll break in with live coverage of standoffs, car chases, etc., because they are playing to the mob, and the mob wants death and destruction.

If they could produce footages of hundreds of bodies of children or elderly folks floating somewhere, they would do it, and their ratings would go up.

Like a friend of mine said this morning (we were watching the news and saw some footage of bodies), there's not much difference between showing a body or two or three bodies, and a hundred, two hundred, five hundred. It's all numbers at that point.

We saw this with the Tsunami, and your example of 9/11 is the probably the best example of this. Rather than give people dignity, they'd rather show them plummeting to their deaths for 24 hours, and then turn around and say "out of respect for the families, we won't show any more".

You simply have no idea what you are talking about. I've had the police try to keep me quiet when kids screwing around shot my car. Seems they didn't like their phones ringing off the hook with reporters wanting to know about the "sniper" incident.

You should have seen their faces when I informed them my wife was a J-school student, and who do they think told the reporters in the first place.

Just FYI, on 9/11 they DID shut off the cameras for the people jumping out of the buildings. They NEVER showed them hitting the ground. On the first day, they were reporting "2 confirmed dead", when obviously it had to be MUCH higher than that. Look at the TOTAL lack of coverage of the areas in Mississippi... They are staying around the hard rock hotel, and that’s it. Where are the helicopters flying overhead along the entire coastline? Where are pictures of Slidell? There is DEFINETLY a media black out of sorts. I mean, look at the evacuation of the people from the Superdome... Yesterday it was reported that this was happening, and the threads were removed because the media "backed off" the claim. Yet, somehow, we wake up to find they are moving 25,000 people to the Astrodome. There definitely is a total lack of solid communication occurring, be it on purpose, or just because the lines of communication are down. I do find it hard to believe though that we cannot get ANY solid information, yet at the same time the Army Corp of Engineers can flat bed trucks with jersey walls on the back of them into uptown New Orleans, and have helos lift them off the back of the trucks and place them in the hole in the levee...

I mean, you get numerous reports of looting and all sorts of horrid events going on in what must be one of the worst hell holes on earth at the moment, yet we are told only 100 people died when a tidal surge went in at least 1/4 of a mile and leveled ENTIRE towns. I hardly buy it. Call me a nut, a wacko, a right-wing extremist, but I DEFINETLY feel we are not being given the entire story here, as stated before, be it as complex as some concoction to conceal the truth and buy time, or as simple as the fact that communication lines are down. But to believe the media is some "reliable" source of information... I just cannot do that. If that were the case, why should people west of the east coast have even bothered voting in the 2000 election considering the media CALLED it for Gore....?

No thanks, I’ll go on being a kook.

MFH: "The numbers are staggering and what I have been told tonight will shake people to their foundation as the numbers will be coming out in the next 24-hours of just how many people have actually perished in these and 3 other beach communities."

Sadly, MFH has proven himself, and his sources, credible again, GWB. I hope you will eat crow and apologize to him and everyone else you have insulted in this forum.....but, I doubt you will, as it's obvious you're the one who's "left reality far behind" you.
