Give Anderson Cooper credit for pointing out a New Orleans police officer's anger at a big CNN sin of omission in their Hurricane Katrina coverage. In an excerpt of his new memoir, "Dispatches from the Edge," Cooper writes:

"One of the African-American officers I'm sitting with is angry at CNN. We aired a story about some police who were allegedly looting after the storm. He's not disputing that it happened, but he wishes we'd done more to point out that it was only a handful of cops."
