MSM Squawks About Photographing NOLA Dead:George Bush and His Magical Nuclear Generated TsunamiGuarding The Public's SELECTIVE Right to Know
One doesn;t have to look very far to find reps of the MSM crying about FEMA not facilitating the photographing of operations recovering human remains from the shambles. For instance here in the WaPo, and when the CHief checked the NYT OpEds the futility of responding to the veritable truckloads of manure about the post-Katrina situation became immmediately evident.
The real bone of contention the MSM cites, is that to report on the situation, the public must be able to view all the gory details of retrieval of human remains after a week+ in the bilges of flooded New Orleans.
The Chief doesn't agree, but prima facie, it IS an arguable point. IF the point is conceded however, why did the MSM staunchly resist showing the people jumping from the World Trade Center on 9-11? Oh, yeah, that was to prevent offending and/or inflaming viewers with the harsh reality of the face of Islamofascism at work.
What's the difference here? In one case showing the events to the public would have had the practical effect of shoring up the support for the terror-war, and thereby reinforcing the responses of the administration. (Nope, mustn't do THAT!)
In the case of NOLA, the scenes shown would be used to try to club the administration over the Katrina disaster and it's aftermath. (Yes, the public needs to see that!)
Once again, the MSM is showing that it's effective motto should be adapted from it's flagship New York Times slogan "All the news that's fit to print" morphing into a more truthful version: "ALL THE NEWS THAT FITS, WE PRINT!"
