“I live in a hurricane prone area,” Fry said during an appearance on “Carl Higbie FRONTLINE.” “We see disasters pretty frequently, but I’ve never seen that level of, really cover-up, ever in my entire life of seeing hurricanes on the ground, being on the ground. FEMA just doesn’t act like that. Government officials don’t act like that. The administration’s response has been lackluster at very best, but it’s almost been criminal.”

“We still don’t know how many people are missing?” he asked. “We don’t know their status? This is absolutely ridiculous.

“When you look at the front end of this, the cries for help that were there from the beginning — ‘we need water, we need resources’ — and none of it was followed up with. Every single disaster takes a local, federal and state response. Here, you have three different directions, and no one’s rowing the right way.”
