Fox dropped the news conference. None of the main news channels are carrying it. MSNBC dropped it. The local news on Ch 13 in Orlando is also not carrying it. Unbelieveable.

If the governor was bashing the President and the federal response, they would have carried the presser all the way through.

I wonder how much of the response to earlier FL storms was actually due to FEMA under Brown's direction, and how much was due to Jeb. Brown was touting in LA after the disaster his experience in Florida. I wonder if he actually performed in Florida or whether was just along in a support role while Jeb made all the decisions, but the totality of the effort made Brown look good.

On the cleanup, I saw an early morning story on Fox which showed the difference in storm damage in one city on the east coast between an older multistory office building with every floor damaged (broken glass, facades damaged or missing) and a modern multistory condo built after the codes were strengthened after Andrew. No obvious damage at all including windows. Very impressive.
