Let's see what they show on the anniversary of 9/11,they seemed to have no problem retreating from graphic coverage when we were attacked.

How is the graphic results of a hurricane different from the graphic results of a terrorist attack? [rhetorical of course]

'"We're not shying away from it," ABC News senior vp Paul Slavin said. "I just don't think we've seen that much." He said that ABC News was being guided, among other things, by issues of taste.'
...And by their lust for ratings and hatred for President Bush.

They only want graphic images that they can use against Bush.... graphic images of 9/11 would remind people of why we need to fight and not surrender.... graphic images of victims of Katrina can be used to smear the administration (notice there's barely been a whisper in any media source I have seen of the failures in primary responsibility of the DEMOCRATIC local and state officials).

I've stopped watching it. I've been about as impressed as I'm gonna get for this "crisis." FOX News Channel has lost it and is out of control. That leaves me without a reliable news source other than Free Republic. Thank God for NASCAR, Diamondback baseball and football. Should have a pretty good, racism-free holiday weekend. All the Commie Bush-bashing has really wore me out.

what pains me most is there are STILL elderly people waiting - fox has this on live (cameras skimming over the people who are still behind - many elderly are still left)
I saw a very large group of Vietnamese that refused to go in front of others - they are stepping back to let Americans go first! (it brings me to tears)

9/11 pictures ENFORCE Bush.
Katrina pictures have the opposite effect.
MSM job is to weaken Bush.
To: mdittmar
And I won't forget that the looting marauding began after the storm had passed but BEFORE the flooding.
This had nothing to do with needing food, it was all about EVIL.

"Alison Stewart that there were dead bodies everywhere, including two babies who had died of dehydration.Shepard Smith stood on Interstate 10 amid the devastation and, in one shot, showed the covered body of a man who was dead alongside the highway. Maybe they should show those images next to this one:
And ask why people die along a highway because Nagin said they had no toilets on them, instead of tossing a pail on a bus and telling people to hit the road.

Are they hiding tapes of the rape gangs?

The networks are engaging in pure Bush bashing. Let 'em squeal. With each report their credibility erodes further which, in turn, strengthens the conservative vision.

The footage so far has been sanitized and stage manged.

What I want to know is how many people die on a normal day in a city of 1 million people?
To: mdittmar
Sure, there's a political angle to this. But I believe there is also a very subtle media campaign going on here to ensure that New Orleans is never going to be rebuilt -- at least not anything close to its former size.
The nation-wide political will to rebuild New Orleans declines with every story we see on the cable or network television news about the aftermath of Katrina.

My thoughts exactly. If they showed more graphic coverage of 9/11, beheadings, the aftermath of homicide bombings, etc., our country would be a lot less divided.
