Free download - Big Easy to Big Empty: The Untold Story of the Drowning of New Orleans

Published on September 7, 2009 By aroddoold In Everything Else

Greg Palast is a non-partisan investigative reporter who has uncovered many scandals by the corrupt and powerful.

In this documentary he uncovers aspects about the flooding of New Orleans which speak not well of the people that were in charge.

This week you can download the documentary for free, although I understand that Greg Palast would apreceate a donation. For some reason he doesn't have many corporate sponsors.

A related topic: The webcomic "After the Deluge" tells the authentic story of some people who suffered through the storm, the flooding and the aftermath. Recommended.

Fun fact:

After the first broadcast of this film, a criminal complaint was filed against Greg Palast by the Department of Homeland Security.
The charge: filming "critical infrastructure".

We get it, you like these "hot" topics. Could you perhaps consider restraining yourself so the off-topic forums aren't loaded with divisive political crap?
