The pictures probably aren't as good
By Matthew Hoy on February 2, 2009
Dozens of people are dead in Kentucky because of a severe ice storm that has left people without power and cut off from the outside world. FEMA has been slow to respond and the president hasn't rushed to the area to survey the damage.
The media isn't interested in applying the Katrina standard to the new president.
Welcome to the new politics.

Actually, no serious person is sure what the conservative majority will do here. That's common in these politically charged cases. Meanwhile, literally nobody doubts what the *Democrat-appointed* justices will do. So who is "deeply partisan" again? https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/12/01/supreme-court-abortion-argument-roe-dead/
If Bush was still in office, the MSM would be all over this story, just as they were all over Katrina. But, Saint Obama is in power, so they will not cover it.
