I've been trying to find news footage taken from a helicopter immediately after the storm. It flew over New Orleans, Jefferson Parish, and the west bank and announced what neighborhoods flooded, etc.

Anyone remember that and might know where I could find that?

Read "Five Days at Memorial"


That book is a hatchet job on Dr. Anna Pou and many other of the medical staff at Memorial by an author hell bent on capitalizing on families lost loved one and staff that did all they could possible do with very little help from their corporate offices or their government. It was brought about by a zealous La Attorney General trying to make a name for himself.

And yes I read the book. And it is clear to me and should be clear to anyone with any kind of knowledge or closeness to the storm and the ensuing aftermath of the rescue, recovery and cleanup that it is hyperbole at best and bullshite at the very least. I suggest digging much deeper than Sherri Finks imagination.
