KOA, Denver talk host Mike Brown will do his radio show from New Orleans
If the name is familiar, it should be. Mike Brown is the former head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) under the Bush administration, whose office was responsible for the response to Hurricane Katrina. Five years later, Brown is the evening talk show host on Denver’s news/talk KOA-AM (850), and he will be traveling back to New Orleans to coincide with the five-year anniversary of the disaster that destroyed much of New Orleans and devastated parts of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. Brown resigned as FEMA chief 10 days after President Bush said “Brownie, you’re doing a heck of a job.” The AP reports that Brown says in a new HBO documentary on Katrina that he “winced when Bush said that because he had just finished telling the president why things weren’t working.” You can listen to Brown’s show on Clear Channel-owned KOA-AM here.
