FEMA blocks photos of Katrina's dead - under heavy criticism for poor disaster management, FEMA has stopped allowing reporters to accompany rescue missions and asked that the press not show pictures of dead bodies. With a few reports of violence against reporters, could those pesky journalists be pissing off the wrong people?

Missmerrymack, that's astonishing to read. Really. What danger do the press pose, aside from showing what's really happening in the city? Oops, look like I answered my own question.

And, nice double!
