CNN's Aaron Brown talked to Times-Pic editor Jim Amoss last night.

BROWN: Is it a huge marker in some sense for the paper to get? Does it tell us anything about the situation on the ground, honestly, that the paper's publishing?

AMOSS: Well, the fact that the paper's publishing I think is a testament to the hunger of its readers. And we experienced it firsthand when we distributed the first print product post-hurricane this morning to people in shelters. And as our circulation director said, they accepted it, they grabbed for it almost as if it were food.


And here's a picture of the Times-Picayune's makeshift newsroom at LSU's Manship School of Mass Communication in Baton Rouge taken by Paul Dietzel.

Heads up: After you hit "post" things may be slow and you may get an error. Most likely, your comment did post. Apologies. I'm looking for a fix.

Outstanding. Amazing. Inspiring.
