So youre a .gov organaization that gives a press conference and no one shows up to cover it. What to do? If youre FEMA you send in fake reporters:

And these are the guys who are supposed to help?
And some guys take it upon themselves to buy 600′ of 2.5″ hose and DIY
Yeah, made me feel REALLY good about FEMA coming to my rescue.
I can not imagine why anyone thought they could slide that one by.
That’s what I said! Like the news agencies wouldn’t look at the tape and go “Do YOU know those guys?” “*I* don’t know those guys.” “Who ARE those reporters?” I mean, duh.
Worse, it wasn’t a case of nobody showing up. They didn’t allow any real reporters to attend, real reporters only got to listen in.
And THAT, boys and girls, is how things are SUPPOSED to work.
