New Orleans Doctors Plead for Help (also, about our media)

New Orleans Doctors Plead for Help - Yahoo! News

Why has this New Orleans hospital been forgotten?

Why do they have to turn, in their desperation, to the AP for help, because their government won't help them?

An aside: someone has made the interesting observation that CNN and various other news outlets have had a huge number of people on the ground in this area, right from the start. I've been witness to that, as I am sure are you.

It appears that our media works much better in a disaster than does our government, doesn't it? Food for thought there.
