To the average phoney-conservative, any news source that is impartial is biased towards the left.

like most liberals you either don't care about bias as long as it's your bias or you are so extreme left that you can't recognize it. Calling CNN biased towards Bush Sr leads me to the latter.
I happened to be overseas at the time Katrina hit last year, I didn't realize it until I came home, but the coverage was so biased and, more importantly, wrong and shabbily researched I have difficulty believing other stories aren't as badly researched. Links to foreign officials as well as former producers back my claims.

if what happened in Katrina had happened in any other country. The people would have expected their goverments to come to their aid immediately. And their governemtns would have done everything they could have to help them.
I recall that the phoney-cons were talking about murders in the Superdome, and the NG troops who delivered the first shipment of aid were too frightened to get off the helicopter in case a mob ran to kill them. Fact: the people needed help and there was no murders taken place.

They did expect it, they were failed by state, local and federal. But you are mistaken in assuming that any other government would not have made similar mistakes. Numerous countries have made mistakes when it comes to emergencies, most recently Paris burning.
Yeah there were numerous phony stories reported, a heck of a lot of them covered by the BBC which is one large reason I don't respect them more than anyone else.
