You are correct, my link is not related to the OP's incident. The OP's link was meant as an example, and mine was another example of a pattern of behavior among local police, National Guard, and FEMA officials. There were numerous scattered stories about this yesterday, not just these two links.

I interpreted the pattern of behavior to mean there was a coordinated order from above to keep out the media. I didn't specficially blame it on the Bush administration, but I plead guilty by association given the subject of the thread.

I also provided additional anecdotal evidence of the opposite pattern of behavior. I interpreted this to mean that either clear orders have been issued to let the media perform their jobs, or there was no anti-media order in the first place. Either way, I consider the issue resolved with the correct outcome.

I apologize for not being clear the first time around.
