Chron covers three week old news

On January 18th, KUHF-88.7’s Jim Bell reported that the Harris County Housing Authority was taking on national responsibility for those displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

Yesterday, almost three weeks later, the Chron’s Mike Snyder filed a story on the subject:

Tiny Houston housing agency takes on national job
11,000 Katrina families across U.S. will be helped by group noted for its expertise

A small, Houston-based agency with 25 employees has been chosen to administer housing assistance for about 11,000 families around the country who were displaced by hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Except that it’s not Houston’s Housing Authority that is administering the national program; it’s Harris County’s Housing Authority, which is noted in the second paragraph. There is a difference.

It’s questionable whether Houston’s Housing Authority would be up to the task, but then again, Houston’s Daily Information Source isn’t up to its task either.
