Yes, I know there's a hurricane...

To the anonymous emailer who asked me, politely, why I wasn’t giving any coverage to Hurricane Katrina, I ask, politely, why are you looking for coverage of a hurricane in the Southeast US on a blog about Los Angeles media? Anyway, Variety does have a story about Katrina’s effect on productions underway in New Orleans and environs (coincidentally, the subject of a recent LAT feature).
