Re: 7 States consider lowering the drinking age to 18

First let me state my deepest sympathies for you and everyone else in that area during Hurricane Katrina. I can see how it would be difficult to trust any media source after having gone through what you have gone through. I am in no way saying that the media is non-biased, because with out a doubt they do fabricate news stories quite extensively. But being on the West Coast looking from the outside in, it would seem that it is only natural for humans to panic in a time of crisis such as a major devastating hurricane, even local authorities. It seems that by expecting anything less from them would be an attempt to bypass our natural human tendencies. However, on the other hand, they should be able to handle times of crisis with a bit more grace then the common civilian, but again, they are only human. And you must remember that not all of America's authority's are acting that way, for we are not all in a crisis zone. So my question to you is, what makes you more suspicious then the normal person of major news corporations like CNN etc.?
