Katrina: Truth or Consequences

Today's plenary session discussed the Hurricane Katrina disaster. Moderator Michelle Norris of NPR & ABC News set the terms for the discussion right away by saying we need to find out if we really told the "true" story of what happened during the crisis.....and were we as black journalists especially, as fair & balanced in covering the story as possible.

Panelists for today's discussion:
Trymaine Lee, NOLA Times-Picayune
Kristin Mack, Houston Chronicle
Corey Dade, Wall Street Journal
Suzanne Malveaux, CNN
Bryan Monroe, NABJ President

All of the panelists covered the event....highlights of the discussion follow.
