New Orleans and Nashville

The media is full of reports on the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's damage to New Orleans. Five years have passed and we still hear more about New Orleans than the May 2010 floods that devastated Nashville and surrounding areas, merely four months ago. Why is that? Could it be that Nashville did not cry out for help? Could it be that there was no looting? Could it be that there was no local police disarming honest citizens? Could it be that there was no police shooting of citizens? Could it be that taking responsibility for yourself and your community does not make 'good news'? Interesting questions all, but I was sent a link to a youtube video that I found very enlightening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFjaQoOdJvI See what you think.
