Nagin Speaks
NOLA Mayor C.Ray Nagin addressed the session:
"if Katrina had happened in Orange County, CA or South Beach, Miami....there would have been a different response"
"the media at the beginning did a really good job.....then it got really competitive....then it dived into some "creative journalism"......thats where the facts got lost"
"we are struggling [in NOLA] because we are not getting the resources down to the people, and no one is writing about that"
"we [in NOLA] need the resources....everyone else just get out of the way [of the rebuilding effort]"
