Shame on TV
Watch TV coverage of the floods ravaging Iowa. Listen to herds of people screaming for federal help. Where are they? In a disaster multiples greater than Katrina. How does coverage differ from the coliseum in New Orleans? Where is the hysteria? Black Americans in New Orleans came from the poorest precinct in the city. TV turned a pitiful situation into a front page racial issue. Shame on TV! Those people were the poorest in the nation. Pawns of a corrupt mayor. They deserved better.
