at the Astrodome, trying sooooo hard to get someone to say something bad about Bush's speech. But everyone professed to believe Bush's promise to rebuild New Orleans. And person after person blamed the mayor and local government. Dean finally got someone to half-heartedly say they wish more would have been done sooner. But boy, was that crowd down on the mayor. Luckily, Koppel was able to interview George Stephanopoulis to get a few negatives.
Everyone is sounding positive. Even that crazy Broussard guy from Jefferson Parish was upbeat (if not entirely coherent).
Update: Lorie Byrd has more. Video here.
Update: Luckily, ABC was able to ignore its own coverage and find some hostile folks.
* edited to get Dean's name right.
Update (9/16): On the Newshour, they pulled the one negative comment Reynolds managed to drag out of one woman and played that as representative of comments "outside the Astrodome." I almost predicted that in my post last night. Then I deleted it as being paranoid. I guess it's not paranoia if they really are out to get you.
Update (9/17): Matt Duffy's post on selective editing: NPR: Taking the time to frame it right.
