It was kind of funny that when we turned on PBS the question being asked to a Missouri professor right then was "is this situation comparable to Katrina?"

And I think that's what seems strange about the coverage.

It's almost like the media don't have the same enthusiasm for showing the public instances of successful local and state governments working in concert with people taking personal responsibility to keep a disastrous situation from taking a huge toll in human life as they do in blaming people after other disasters and seeing people as victims. Why would that be?
