Re: Lost in the Flood
Why no mention of race or class in TV's Katrina coverage?

Dear Mr. Shafer,
Please stop acting like a typical liberal egghead and stop focusing on a bogus race/class issue with this hurricane disaster. Along with reading about the damage done, personal stories, and looking into possible charitable contributions, I come across your story. I was rather surprised to see the same liberal ranting about race and class. I'd like to think that it would be Americans supporting other Americans. Who gives a crap about the ethnic background of the people covering the news. Your story is truly a piece of trash. I'd love to see you fired and give another news person the opportunity to take your place.
Since you are part of the "media," please do something useful and mention ways to help people. I found the Josh Levin and Ari Kelman quite good, then I see your filth and realize that liberalism is truly a disease. Everything does NOT have to do with race and class. The problem with you liberals is that you are so down on everything you cannot see any good in anything. Take off your horse blinders, and use the talents as a journalist to do something useful for once. You are missing the point. For example, an English class that focuses more on the ethnicity of famous authors, rather than the quality of the works actually written by those authors, are missing the point.
Please do something useful, I hope that there is some human being left in you. Unfortunately, your liberal views have probably eradicated your sense of decency and common sense.
Regards,
