SOCIAL: Katrina response video

[Bob Seymour]

I found this an interesting contrast in news reporting, check them out:
  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4765058.stm
  http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/03/02/fema.tapes/index.html
The BBC's report takes a concise chronological approach and frames Bush 
as the main culprit with damning video evidence all the way.
CNN takes a more editorial approach, first shows Bush's comments to the 
committee (they say "once again" but I don't recall this ever seeing 
this documentary proof before), only recites and shows a chyron of his 
quote post-flood about no one anticipating the breach, seems to frame 
Chertoff as the main culprit, then asks "why is this news now?"...
