Absolutely correct. From the moment Rita hit, anyone with two brain cells to rub together knew what kind of devastation had to be expected at the coast, and knew towns such as Cameron and Holly Beach probably weren't there anymore. Anyone interested in showing this could have gone out in a helicopter at daybreak.
What stopped them? What kept them from actively seeking out the story? The answer is the MSM simply wasn't interested in bringing any of that into our living rooms, so they simply ignored it. The only destruction they were interested in showing was Houston had it been hit, because they anticipated that destruction with glee. That didn't pan out, so it's back to NOLA and the levees for them, to continue the Bush bash. And once again, the MSM molds and shapes the news, instead of reporting it.
no gas. there is NO gas in the entire se texas area. None. There is no electricity east of houston or south of jasper (or maybe even above that). Whatever area Entergy serves in se texas is out and will be out for weeks. Wires are everywhere. I have lots of photos but no battery power to get them uploaded. must save battery power for contact with kids.
Meant to include: MSM may not be covering because unless they bring their own gas in, they'll get stuck somewhere like many thousands of people are now.
Gotta run. I'll come back tomorrow and hopefully someone will have some info on inverters. Wish I could remember who the experts are in that dept.
Exactly. Even FNC. They put reporters where they THOUGHT the damage would be then when it went to SWLA they did not move them but let them report on the relatively minor damage to Galveston, etc. Also they are extremely hung up on the lower ninth ward reflooding.
