The Bad Timing of RitaMedia, blushing, takes a second look at Katrina
First was the priceless moment when General Honore told the assembled press "You're stuck on stupid!".
Later on, inaccuracy, sensationalism, and in effect rumor-mongering has been noted to be endemic in the coverage of the gulf coast hurricanes.

Like the cases with the NYT reporters fabricating stories, and the TV networks doing the same, when not reporting forged information as fact, apparently they regard themselves as having transcended the standards they would impose on others.
A slight issue with hypocrisy here? Shocking behavior by elements of the (self)esteemed 4th estate!
