Popular Mechanics Debunks Hurricane Katrina Myths
Controversy is always best assailed with facts. In an excellent article from 2006, Popular Mechanics did just that with the Hurricane Katrina disaster. If you are interested in this sordid episode in American history, you should read this article. Mistakes were made, but they were not the ones usually cited to the public. Those allegations usually cited often have little truth behind them. The most galling part to this partisan blogger, is that after reading the article, it is harder to make George Bush and FEMA director Michael Brown out as the boogie men they are usually portrayed as. Popular Mechanics’ approach is comprehensive and well-written.
Don’t take my word for it. Read the excellent article.
