Okay, I'm back - interview wrapped up
Here's what I know - it definitely went out live on BBC 24 World News, which is kinda the BBC equivalent of CNN. It wasn't aired on the PBS broadcast earlier, but it might be on the PBS broadcast this evening, which in the DC area we get at 10pm. I'm digitally recording it just in case.

I was asked three pretty soft questions, I expressed my outrage at the fact that people were still dying in the streets of New Orleans four days after the event, and I explained that George W. Bush shouldn't have been eating birthday cake and playing the guitar on the day it happened. Oh yeah, and that Condi Rice was shoe-shopping and the vice president had disappeared. I think it went okay........

MON-TUE-WED-THUR-FRI


When the Levees break: reported 11:15 a.m MONDAY MORNING on WSDU



Never FOGET!





11:15 a.m.: Levee Breached At Industrial Canal

There's been a levee breach at an industrial canal in the Ninth Ward in St. Bernard Parish. When this occurs, water rises rapidly, so residents should be extra alert to the threat of rising water. There are reports of 8 feet of water spilled out because of the breach. There is also heavy street flooding throughout Orleans, St. Bernard and Jefferson parishes. A WDSU crew drove around the city and some streets look like flowing rivers. Also, earlier reports of an apartment collapse in Jefferson Parish are false. It was actually a house that collapsed. -- WDSU.com Web Staff

Edited on Fri Sep-02-05 08:13 PM by Steve_DeShazer
Thanks for representing. The guitar-playing cake eater and CondImelda's shoe fetish are great examples of how this administration DOESN'T CARE about ordinary Americans.

21. Hey, George is going to label you Benedict Arnold for that!
But I think those were great points! Especially the part about Nero playing the guitar and eating cake...with Condi.
