2005: Remember Katrina and the media




Back in 2005, the media went crazy over New Orleans.

As soon as the city was flooded, the media blamed the Bush tax cuts for the levees.  


As soon as poor blacks were left behind, the media accused Bush of being a racist.  

As soon as the hurricane hit the city, the media began running stories on global warming.

Things went from bad to silly when Cindy Sheehan called on Bush to get our troops out of occupied New Orleans.

What happened here?

Katrina turned into another Bush bashing show.
