That Katrina Vid

Posted by Eric at 10:14 am. Filed under: Randomly Interesting

Regarding the MSM excitement surrounding the “Bush was briefed before Katrina” video, Newsbusters is pointing out that everyone seems to be confusing “breach” with “overtop.” Captain Ed and Dafydd are in on the act too.

The AP said:

Bush declared four days after the storm, “I don’t think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees” that gushed deadly floodwaters into New Orleans. But the transcripts and video show there was plenty of talk about that possibility — and Bush was worried too.

Hinderaker does more deconstructing, as does Kevin over at Wizbang.

The LA Times notes the selective AP editing.

“The AP video does not include footage of Chertoff asking Brown whether he needs any other help or of Chertoff asking whether Brown wants him to approach the Department of Defense. Transcripts show that to both questions, Brown indicated that no additional assistance was needed.”
