watching GMA covering the victims of the CA fire, I'm struck by several things [View All]

[Lerkfish]

They're doing heartfelt interviews of the victims: discussing their loss of property in emotional palpable terms. One fellow had 12 acres burned. Think about the cost of land in california, and then think about 12 whole acres of it.

but the point is: they're interviewing people and their loss...the way the story SHOULD be covered.

Now think back, in the way back machine, to New Orleans. Do you recall ANY black family being interviewed, do you remember ANY reporter saying "sorry for your loss" in terms of their lost PROPERTY?

all I remember, from the time, were more well to do WHITE families, north of NOLA being interviewed, people that owned BUSINESSES and discussing the loss of their BUSINESS.


Kanye West was right, but he should have included the media.
