Media critique of Bush Katrina coverage sparks debate
Cal Thomas argues the media and politicians used a racial template in covering Bush's Katrina address. He notes ABC interviewed evacuees at Houston's Astrodome, most of whom were black, and claims the segment reinforced stereotypes while ignoring individual responsibility and broader poverty causes. He defends faith-based aid efforts by Second Baptist Church and criticizes race-class liberal narratives.
