New Orleans Times-Picayune | CBS Public Eye
"60 Minutes" has been criticized for Sunday's report quoting geologist
Tim Kusky as saying that New Orleans will become a "fish bowl" -- a city completely surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico.
Scott Pelley says Kusky's involvement grew out of concerns the piece was too biased in favor of rebuilding. "You can't just go down to New Orleans and interview all the people with a vested interested and put on a '60 Minutes' piece that says 'by golly we're going to rebuild this city as best as it ever was.' Because that doesn't capture spectrum of opinion across this country about whether this can be done or whether it should be done."
