Still waiting for in-depth reporting from Mississippi.

What, do they just hate this state that much? It is a little strange when the vultures refuse to circle..

Whatever the news is, I'd like to see more about Mississippi. And a lot less about NOLA. I still think MS looks to be the real Ground Zero.

Still waiting for in-depth reporting from Mississippi.

Reports are starting to come out finally

(MS) Dead may number in the thousands -- Clarion-Ledger

Lt. Rusty Pittman of the Mississippi Bureau of Marine Resources, involved in the search effort, said he worries the death toll "could reach 4,000, maybe 5,000, if not more." The official number of confirmed dead in Mississippi remained at 170, but Biloxi spokesman Vincent Creel said Monday he thinks there will be several hundred dead just in Biloxi.
My personal opinion, that I've stated previously, is that they deliberately downplayed MS because they didn't want hundreds of thousands of worried relatives clogging all the roads. There is no longer any point, because people who haven't heard from their relatives/friends are now going to get on the roads to find out what happened
