WWLTV.com Live Special Gustav Coverage Streamed In Toilet
Vigilance is his watchword.
Sonza, a bartender and part-time graduate studenton a trip to the Windy City planned long before the storm, was riveted by live pictures of the storm surge overtopping the western floodwall of the Industrial Canal.
“I just felt like I need to know,” said Sonza.
“After Katrina, we saw how one breach could flood the entire city. I couldn’t not witness history, however grim it might be.”
Sonza says that, because he brought the laptop on his bare legs, he was able to witness live the first video of the overtopping presented by WWL-TV reporter Mike Hoss to anchors Dennis Woltering and Angela Hill.
“I just felt so helpless,” Sonza said. “I was so far away and unable to do anything to help my friends, my family, or my town. All I could do was watch.”
“I think Angela would understand,” he added.
Ms. Hill could not be reached for comment.
