Louisiana state officials blocked relief supplies, workers from reaching New Orleans

Fox News broke a story that Louisiana state authorities had prevented the Red Cross from delivering supplies and undertaking relief work in the City of New Orleans.

The MSM is largely ignoring the story because it doesn't fit into their predetermined "the federal government (Bush) let people die because they were black people" theme for the post-hurricane disaster in New Orleans.

The Red Cross website confirms the story.

Visit http://www.redcross.org/faq/0,1096,0_682_4524,00.html for the Red Cross FAQ explaining why they are not active in the city of New Orleans.

It is because state officials have told them to stay out.
