I must say I have missed hearing about the likes of dictator-lovin’ Sean Penn paddling into Staten Island in a canoe. Guess all those (mainly) white people freezing and starving in the dark isn’t a big enough concern for the manchild of Hollyweird.
It’s probably also the lack of guaranteed Democrat media hysterical coverage, which Istapundit puts the best possible face on:
“That, I suspect, is because Sandy happened in an area that reporters know. Media folks found it easy to believe stories about New Orleans that they wouldn’t believe about their own area. New Orleans is full of black people and southerners, two groups underrepresented in the national media. Manhattan, on the other hand, is familiar turf. Count on the press to give its own milieu a fairer shake.”
Well, fairer in some ways. They do seem to have “forgotten” this time to blame FEMA’s usual stupidity on the president who appointed its director. But of course. This president is a Democrat. And half-black to boot. Two media no-nos in one.
UPDATE: A roundup of the Democrat FEMA’s screwups with Sandy.
