Well you are very lucky.

I don't think the press blew the disaster out of proportion. They may have blown other things out of proportion (GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE!) but no matter how many hours were dedicated to covering the disaster, it's not like they could ever accurately portray exactly how many thousands of lives were devestated by the hurricane. To say that Hurricane Katrina was blown out of proportion seems incredibly insensitive to me.
