Thursday, September 08, 2005 Facing Reality Since BushWorld Refuses: Dead Pix DKos: Magorn's "The Cover-up Begins: Cops Attack Photographers in N.O." says this: "...if you are preparing to tell a Big Lie about an event, the 1st thing you have to do is control the images. You have to make sure an inconvenient photo doesn't destroy your carefully crafted spin campaign. A little incontrovertible proof can destroy wks of carefully manufactured spin. The easiest way to control the pictures of course is, manipulate, harass, or physically threaten the photographers to try to keep them from taking unwelcome pictures. If that doesn't work, you can always take their cameras; at gunpoint if necessary. Wanna guess what's happening in the former City of New Orleans Right now?" Fine... since FEMA ordered no pix to be taken of the dead in N.O. (why? b/c they respect them so much?? they didn't give a damn when they were alive to even help them STAY ALIVE) you can see (very graphic) photos of the N.O.'s dead here(1) and here (2), courtesy of Ogrish.Com. You can also see additional pix here (3), courtesy of My Left Wing's brainchild Maryscott O'Connor & D.Kos, and here (4), courtesy of AMERICAblog. I mean absolutely NO disrespect to the dead. We need to see the horrifying realities there... before the bullshit whitewash removes all traces of the Bush administration's criminally negligent massive F-up. |
