Russert gets fooled once again

If anyone watched Meet the Press two weeks agao, they would have been subjected to the bloviating Aaron Broussard, president of Jefferson Parish, La, recite how a friend's mother wasted away in a nursing home while waiting for help for five days after the levies broke in New Orleans.

Well, it turned out to be a total fraud. Powerline has more details.

It wil be interesting to see how Tim Russert reacts to this fraud. Will he give equal time to the real truth of the matter? I doubt it. This story is a great example of how the reporting on Hurricane Katrina is one of the largest media frauds in the history of the media. Imagine if the Blogosphere did not exist....hmmm... at least Dan Rather is no longer reporting such frauds.

The fallout will continue....
