Horror

Click here to watch a shell-shocked Shepard Smith and a crying - literally crying - Geraldo Rivera struggle to convince Sean Hannity that the situation at the convention center is dire. At one point, Shepard Smith tells us people are locked inside the Convention Centre, with a checkpoint set up on a major road to prevent them from entering Gretna, Louisianna, where there is electricity and hope. When, Hannity gives a little grin, and asks for perspective, Smith loses it and screams at him this is perspective! [HT Lioness]

The footage is from six days after the storm hit, at least a day after the first convoys started rolling in.

It's harrowing, and - unbeliavably - its on Fox.
