Shannon ? Why on earth were you doing “hurricane recovery” in Gulfport, Mississippi? As I told my relatives in Mississippi, I was very relieved for their sakes to hear from all the many media reports about Hurricane Katrina that all of the damage was localized to New Orleans. Surely it’s not the case that the media have completely ignored poor, black, rural areas of Mississippi and perhaps even Alabama that ? crazy as it sounds to even say it ? could have been affected by the same hurricane! What possible motivation could they have for it?
