These passengers paid for the trip. Nobody put a gun to their head. They knew what they were getting into.
Hilarious listening to cnn clowns peeing all over each other over this.

Liberal media at its worst, as usual. Keep in mind, this was no accident. He wasnt the only one who did something like this regarding the cruise ship mess. Others in the liberal media also brought up taxes, the rich companies, etc when talking about it. The liberal media will politicize ANYTHING and EVERYTHING if they can some how spin it towards their views.

Im glad the passenger was bright enough to refute such a stupid statement by that reporter in this case.
I have seen this mentioned in other places. How can the media expect any credibility when they would try in anyway to connect or compare the two..And yes, I hope more passengers come forward to rufute what is being printed or said.

Long before a CNN reporter used the Katrina analogy, one of the passengers being interviewed compared life on the ship to what it was like in the Dome after Katrina.

Hmmm...I don't see anything 'liberal' about it, and if anyone is trying to politisize something, it is you.

labeling everything outside of Fox as liberal is moronic, especially when it comes to CNN.

I just have to say, I am tired of hearing about this stupid story and all the people who was stuck on this luxury cruise ship for 5 WHOLE days! Please! Nobody died, starved ( maybe a little hungry but that's it ). They all came back safe and to top it off, they got the whole trip refunded. Some other CNN person, not sure who it was, was horrified how little compensation each person would received ( $500, refunded trip, credit for future cruise among other things ). Really? This entitlement mentality is driving me crazy. I am not saying they should not get their trip refunded. I think they should. However, stop acting like they went through a war or something.
Here we have a bunch of people who paid more money than many people in the world could ever dream of, go on a luxury cruise and something goes wrong with the ship, and it get stuck for a few days. Suddenly the media is acting like it is a major natural disaster and how the people on board the ship probably will suffer from PTS symptoms.
If this country suffered a major catastrophe, this country would never survive because people would be to busy freaking out over the small stuff.
