Hillary talks with Greta

[kstewart33]

From TV Newser, a TV media site:

Earlier today, Greta Van Susteren asked Sen. Hillary Clinton what the media can do in this disaster:

"I think the media's done a good job over the last seven, eight days. I think that you have brought home to America and the world the enormity of the suffering and the loss that has happened. And stay with it -- don't get diverted from this story. This is something that will take months and years even to define and analyze. The media can't just go to another story, and maybe now there's a seriousness and a purpose that really gives the media a chance to the celebrity stories of the moment..."

Clinton urged viewers and reporters to avoid disaster fatigue, "because we have a lot ahead of us..."

Anyone want to bet how long it will be before Greta returns to Aruba?

1. there's enough public outrage that maybe even WH pressure

won't keep Greta and her cohorts from focusing on this catastrophe.

Rove/bush/whomever tried early on to clamp down on this by strong arming LA Gov Blanco - she did not rescind the autonomy of the state of Louisiana. Nor have other states who are now taking on thousands of storm victims going to completely buckle under to the White House and demand media complicity.
