I won't dismiss it quite as easily. The sentence structure in the second cutline is so awkward as to really make you wonder? How are you gon just "find" bread at the local grocery store? Try that today and most likely you will "find" your azz in jail somewhere. This example does suggest a media bias at play here.
If it's looting, then it's looting no matter who is doing it. period.
...and memo to President Bush and whatever cabinet delegation may be flying to visit the Gulf Coast region today. Before yall roll out, please load up Air Force One with aid workers and supplies/food, and distribute them to these people while you are there.
Really, we're what, 5 days into this? The glaring absence of an effective implementation is alarming.
