Bill Hemmer on Katrina: ‘The disaster was endless’

As the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina approaches, FNC’s Bill Hemmer talks with NOLA.com about his experience covering the storm and its aftermath:

“I’ve covered a lot of hurricanes, both at Fox and at CNN,” he said. “And this one, when it consumed on the radar the entire Gulf of Mexico — I don’t know how long you’ve been alive, but that’s an image I had never captured, that I had never envisioned before, from the west coast of Florida to the east coast of Texas.”
