Citizen Katrina

This is the first time, since entering the "sphere" that an event has captivated not only myself but the entire county. Some people, i feel, are trying to exploit the situation:

CNN wants to know how the 2005 hurricane season is affecting you. Send us your thoughts and stories, or write to try to reach loved ones. Use the links below or call in your story to "Anderson Cooper 360" at 1-866-NY-AC360....
Some of the videos, photos and audio submitted may be selected for use in CNN.com's hurricane coverage, CNN television programming or other CNN programming services about hurricanes, so by sending information you are agreeing to our terms of use.

I'm coming around to this Citizen Journalism concept more and more every day. My biggest fear of this was that the major networks were going to use the concept for comercial purposes.
