Considering that I went through Katrina and lived through its devastation, I get extremely cautious when I hear CNN report on any damn thing regarding natural disasters.

Would you like to refute that CNN was an army of idiots reporting on a disaster, or would you like for me to tell you first hand what it was like, because I was here, start to finish, during another disaster and their "coverage".

I know if CNN does not pick on it, well it never happened nadinbrzezinski Mar 2012 #8

3 or 4 feet of hail would get local coverage at least. tammywammy Mar 2012 #9

Well the links you provided already had some pictures. tammywammy Mar 2012 #15

I know, teleformula, the equivalent of CBS nadinbrzezinski Mar 2012 #17

Oh, the "special effects" you keep talking about, as if asking for details about an event means the Brickbat Mar 2012 #60

2.56 X 1 = cm x in Aerows Mar 2012 #31

And 60cm still doesn't equal 1 meter. tammywammy Mar 2012 #47

Have you ever made a mistake nadinbrzezinski Mar 2012 #48

There, event never happened nadinbrzezinski Mar 2012 #50
