Hurricane Katrina Draws PR Blitz

Laptop Battery By Eric Stevenson

has devastated the people of Louisiana and Mississippi. It is sad to see our fellow Americans homeless, hungry and thirsty because of the catastrophe of Hurricane Katrina. What is worse is when we see people who are wasting their money on inappropriate things when they could be helping the victims of Hurricane Katrina. There are a lot of Hurricane Katrina fundraisers who are donating the entire percentage of money to the Hurricane Katrina victims. If you want to help out our fellow Americans, you can donate some money to one of these Hurricane Katrina funds. First of all, make sure that the fund is legitimate and that it donates a high percentage to the Hurricane Katrina victims.

Thinkpad (AXcess News) Reno NV - Public Relations shops are having a field day over the Hurricane Katrina disaster. On all the wires news is flooding in about everything imaginable that can be tied to Hurricane Katrina. And unfortunately, the scams are just as deep in polluted promotion to take advantage of it.

Laptop Computers While many of the PR blitzes are legitimate, those organizations are being drowned out by the hundreds of announcements from businesses taking credit for appearing to be somehow aiding the unfortunate victims of Hurricane Katrina. And the PR firms aren't alone.

As the recovery from Hurricane Katrina continues, traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are increasing among U.S. Gulf Coast residents, a new survey finds. A survey conducted six months after the hurricane found that about three percent of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama had contemplated suicide in the aftermath of the storm. The new survey by researchers with the Hurricane Katrina Community Advisory Group found that the number has doubled to 8 percent in the New Orleans area, the Associated Press reported.

Laptop Computer Both liberal and conservative politicians nationwide have been quick to use Hurricane Katrina as a platform for lauding their party or in support of the lobbyists whose benefactors provided them access to their deep pockets when they last ran for election.

The hurricane feature offers a comprehensive overview of hurricanes, including how they originate and travel as well as their impact on both the coastal and marine ecosystems. The feature also explores 10 of the most significant hurricanes over the past 70 years, culminating with last year’s Hurricane Katrina. Also covered is information on how the hurricane warning system operates, as well as detail on how to protect lives and property from hurricanes. Each section is supported by charts, graphs, maps and other images that reinforce and add information to the topic.

Desktop Computer It's shameful to see such irresponsible behavior to take advantage of one of the largest disasters in the history of the United States.

Notebooks In speaking to Will Hall, editor of BPNews, there has been an overwhelming amount of community support on the local level throughout the Gulf Coast states with thousands of Christians offering their time, money and help in volunteering. But unfortunately, the work of these good Samaritans is being engulfed in a flood of PR campaigns that drowns out the plea for volunteers and donations from worthy organizations.

Lenovo Even the Red Cross was chastised by TV networks in showing 30 second spots of victims of Hurricane Katrina who were angry that they had not received enough money. But break here for a TV commercial for a new car or a vacation cruise a moment and forget about how its affecting everyone's lives.

Hard Drive I can only hope that editors everywhere are doing more than trying to win awards for the broadest news coverage of Hurricane Katrina, as the Online News Association's latest newsletter mentioned in between its pitch for journalists to buy tickets to their latest association meeting in New York - before they're sold out.

Travelstar As an online news publisher we will try to bring readers news on Hurricane Katrina's cleanup efforts and those stories we think show merit. I only hope that everyone else in the media can do the same without falling prey to the temptations of its monetary value in using the news of Katrina to profit from it. God bless everyone in the Gulf States affected and mostly, the fifty children whose own parents are missing.
