Media failing to answer all of these important questions
Why is it that the MSM is only showing black victims of hurricane Katrina?
How badly was Buloxi destroyed compared to New Orleans? Why no coverage of the disaster outside of New Orleans? Why do some people equate this disaster to the plight of black people? Why does the focus on victims lay entirely on the black victims? Were there no white people who lost everything/died? If so, how many white people compared to black people? Why no footage of any white people? What color is Brett Favre's or Trent Lott's family? Why aren't the white people looting and shooting everything in sight? If they are, why no footage of it? Are there no such things as poor white people who lost everything in this hurricane? Why did the mayor of N.O. order buses to shuttle out specific people ahead of the line at his request, yet didn't use the city's 150 some school buses to evacuate any of his other constituents? Was New Orleans the murder capital of the USA prior to this hurricane? Did 42% of all murder cases get dropped by the prosecuters because they have been completely neutered by the ACLU and the NAACP? Were the middle class surrounding New Orleans widely outspoken in their utter fear of the entire city? What percent of New Orleans cops had been convicted criminals? Was New Orleans a total hellhole even years prior to this hurricane? Why aren't any of these tough questions being addressed by the MSM? Why is the MSM parading around the viewpoints of those who feel that Bush and the powers that be have purposefully responded slowly because they don't care about black people? Why is the MSM not reporting how slow the response was to disaster struck white neighborhoods, yet they will give a voice to any conspiracy theorist who feels that levee's were specifically weakened to direct floods to black neighborhoods? Why does a rapper who regularly wears 6 figures worth of diamond and gold jewelry on him at all times and drives around in 6 figure cars complain that Bush doesn't care about poor black people? Why is he trying to get other people to donate money when he can simply remove one of his gold chains and feed 10,000 people? ... -Matt

Why have the media almost exclusively shown the black victims of this disaster? I am sorry for being so stupid to not realize the answer, so please help the ignorant.

What has been covered is what people have thus far found to report. End of story. Nothing sinister going on there.

Re: Media failing to answer all of these important questions

What's the MSM? How badly was Buloxi destroyed compared to New Orleans? Why no coverage of the disaster outside of New Orleans? http://news.google.com/news?q=biloxi...a=N&tab=wn Why do some people equate this disaster to the plight of black people? Because the disaster happened in one of the poorest parts of the country, and the largest city hit is 2/3 black. It's an opportunity to focus on why the historical poverty of southern blacks has been so enduring. Why does the focus on victims lay entirely on the black victims? It doesn't. Were there no white people who lost everything/died? Yes, there were. If so, how many white people compared to black people? It happened 5 days ago. I don't think this count has been high on anyone's priority list. Why no footage of any white people? Well, the majority of New Orleans is black, and the people who didn't make it out of the city are disproportionately black, so it follows that you'd be seeing footage, mostly, of blacks. There has been footage of whites as well, including the famous 'found vs. looted' white couple. What color is Brett Favre's or Trent Lott's family? I'm not positive, but I'd say, uh, white and white. Why aren't the white people looting and shooting everything in sight? The white people? I'm sure there are some white people who are 'looting and shooting'. If they are, why no footage of it? Again, population demographics. Are there no such things as poor white people who lost everything in this hurricane? Yeah, there are, but reporters go where the concentration of people and stories are, namely, the big easy. Why did the mayor of N.O. order buses to shuttle out specific people ahead of the line at his request, yet didn't use the city's 150 some school buses to evacuate any of his other constituents? I don't know. I'm sure he'll be answering this question in coming weeks. Was New Orleans the murder capital of the USA prior to this hurricane? I don't know, the FBI hasn't released the 2004 crime stats. Did 42% of all murder cases get dropped by the prosecuters because they have been completely neutered by the ACLU and the NAACP? According to this article it was due to insufficient evidence to prosecute: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8999837/ Why does a rapper who regularly wears 6 figures worth of diamond and gold jewelry on him at all times and drives around in 6 figure cars complain that Bush doesn't care about poor black people? Why is he trying to get other people to donate money when he can simply remove one of his gold chains and feed 10,000 people? By this line of reasoning, why is Bush, who is much, much richer than whoever it is you're talking about, simply donate instead of calling for others to donate too?

Lack of serious responses typically indicates a question that is (more often than not) merely asinine. Good OPs facilitate good threads; nonsense begets mocking, sarcasm, etc. In other words, Porsche gets out what he puts in.
