Hattiesburg American fights Katrina

The Hattiesburg American tells its story of covering Katrina, complete with timeline, website updates and a tribute to the staff:
"We know our Web coverage has had an impact -- we have gotten e-mail after e-mail from grateful family members:

' I only want to thank you for keeping this website up to date although I don't know how you’re doing it. I live in Hawaii but my family is in Hattiesburg and this site has been my connection to them. I did finally hear from them briefly yesterday and know that they are OK.'"
