CJR Daily: In a Party Mood, USA Today Gets It All Wrong: " if you're handy with a calculator and put all the numbers together -- something that USA Today did not do for its readers -- you get this: What once was a city of close to half a million, 325,000 of them black, has been reduced to a current city of 189,000, only 70,000 of them black. In short, in Katrina's aftermath, New Orleans has lost 255,000 black citizens, but only 37,000 white citizens, reversing the racial demographic that has marked the city for many decades."
