Media banned from New Orleans? Bob Brigham, via Atrios:

We are in Jefferson Parish, just outside of New Orleans. At the National Guard checkpoint, they are under orders to turn away all media. All of the reporters are turning they’re TV trucks around.

Anyone who didn't see the possibility of this coming hasn't been paying attention to sickening recent developments, in which FEMA's core mission has been fused seamlessly into Rove's PR/campaign operation.

Late Update: Atrios adds "...by email Bob says the organization is crappy so they managed to get in."
