I keep seeing the repetition of Junior's contention that the levee broke Tuesday. It did not break Tuesday--it broke Monday night. CNN reported it around 11:50 pm, but the local media (wwltv.com) had reports at least an hour earlier.

| 1. I *clearly* remember reading that there were three levee breaches... |

It might have been false reporting, but I definitely remember it.

| 3. The levee shouldn't be the deciding factor anyway!!! |
|
Hulllllo! There was a HURRICANE and it caused a STORM SURGE and it BLEW DOWN BUILDINGS. There should have been relief efforts going on with or without the fucking flood waters!!

| 8. They "know".. they just report what they choose to report |
|
The local media will somehow have to break through and get this into the mainstream.. Probably a losing battle.. The first news out "wins".
