WWL’s investigative reporter Katie Moore wins national Emmy Award

by The 100 Companies

Katie Moore won the national Emmy Award in Investigative Reporting for “The Man Behind the Warehouse.”

The series explored how more than 800 nursing home residents wound up in deplorable conditions at a Tangipahoa Parish warehouse after being evacuated from their homes during Hurricane Ida.

The series set forth a timeline of the situation and exposed how the Louisiana Department of Health, which regulates nursing homes, approved the facility’s evacuation plan in the days prior to the hurricane making landfall.

Moore’s investigation led to changes in the laws that govern how nursing homes’ evacuation plans are filed with the LDH.
