Jonathan Cohen of the American Thinker on the Second Battle of New Orleans

Cohen writes about the media misinformation campaign following Hurricane Katrina.

I hate to sound naive, but isn't it the media's job to correctly report the facts?

Here is Jonathan's concluding paragraph:

While the talking heads and newspaper pundits were focusing on a fairy tale about tens of thousands of deaths due to the Bush administration’s indifference and incompetence they were missing the real story of Coast Guard pilots, doctors, nurses, and ordinary citizens whose round the clock heroism saved the lives of almost everyone who hadn’t perished in the original storm. Why did we see so little of that on the news?
