Katrina Coverage

On Sunday, WaPo columnist Eugene Robinson informed us that "reasonable" and "sober" African-Americans in New Orleans are starting to warm up to Louis Farrakhan's conspiracy theory. According to that theory, the levee breaks were an intentional attempt to flood black neighborhoods and leave the White D.. neighborhoods high and dry. Reportedly there was a 25' deep crater caused by the explosion.
Appearing on Meet the Press, Robinson said:
"I was stunned in New Orleans at how many black New Orleanians would tell me with real conviction that somehow the levee breaks had been engineered in order to save the French Quarter and the Garden District at the expense of the Lower Ninth Ward, which is almost all black... These are not wild-eyed people... These are reasonable, sober people who really believe that."
