This is a load of horseshit, and some fucking fallacies at work.
First, Yes, I do think the best time to ask the questions out there is anytime after the event until it's as long as it takes to get the fucking answers. The American public has the attention span of a gnat, and people won't give a fuck in 3-6 months.
And the notion that the camps and local authorities would or should need to stop doing what they're doing is a load of rap. The guys operating the choppers and searching for survivors and bodies and clearing debris aren't the people that need to sit down and answer some questions. The fucking county judge, absofuckinglutely he should be asked the hard questions now. That motherfucking isn't mobilizing or doing shit that any of his deputies couldn't do for the time it takes to have a press conference and answer some fucking questions. Instead, he cuts press conferences short any time he gets pressured because he knows he fucked up. Same with the fucking governor who's out there calling people "losers" for asking who's to blame...when it's obvious even to you there's a fuck ton of blame to go around.
Any notion of the news media looking for survivors to tell their stories being lobbed together with my other two points is a red fucking herring. It's irrelevant. Yes, the media is going to look for those stories and harass families. That doesn't mean that the first two things are out of line. In fact, they're necessary.
