***”Let ghoulish CNN file suit against the government to film all the bloated corpses it can find. Let a pontificating PBS "NewsHour" conduct more televised roundtables with grim-faced elites searching out purported national racism. But few any longer trust a frenzied media whose reporters and commentators continually prove as incompetent as they are disingenuous.”***

I was subjected to another and another “reporter” yesterday bent into the wind ad nausea, showing we simple viewers how strong the Ophelia storm was becoming. Enough! Truly mind numbing reporting. The real story of New Orleans demise began a long time ago (natural flow of the Mississippi River).........excellent article except for the inclusion of Global Warming. Start changing the natural flow of any river, stream, wash, and eventually you will have trouble.

”If the building isn’t burning there is nothing to report” same for “if the races get along there is nothing to report…”

Would you like to know how some of these 'journalists' report on a storm? Some years back, we were living in Corpus Christi Texas. There was a storm that was originally predicted to hit that area. It didn't, but that didn't stop the mediots from hyping the conditions. As we drove past one area near the bay, we saw all kinds of media trucks and some jerk with a big water hose. While the cameras were rolling, they sprayed the "reporter" from the hose. It certainly wasn't raining! It was somewhat windy (but then, CC always was windy it seemed).

So, when you see some rain-swept reporter, look for evidence that it's really raining, and not just a water hose.
