Will you look at those IDIOT reporters on CNN!

[Catherine Vincent]

They are about to blow away in Mobile, Alabama. Encouraging people not to go outside.

1. the weather guy...

[TrustingDog]

4. I noticed Anderson's mercury go up... is he gay,?

just a question.

[nostamj]

6. WAY GAY n/t

[Kipepeo]

11. as the day is long

:)

[Lancer]

18. Maybe (not that that's a bad thing, of course)

it seems pretty certain his late brother was. Defenestration his fate. . . in front of their mother, Gloria Vanderbilt.

Very sad story.

[tedoll78]

9. You bet!

Rob Marciano! WOOF!

I like it when he turns into the wind; it makes his breaker hug his torso.. :)

[mandyky]

14. The weather guy is a Republican

He let that slip out during the primaries, I believe the week of the GA Democratic Primary. Ever since then I stopped watching when he was on.

[nostamj]

2. "Hurricane Porn" n/t

[jdj]

3. If you watch the weather channel you can see wet idiots 24-7

[MercutioATC]

5. I used to storm sail...extreme weather can be fun :)

A friend and I would wait for small craft advisories on Lake Erie and go out in his 19-foot sailboat. Sure, it's a little dangerous, but extreme weather can be extremely enjoyable.

[Catherine Vincent]

7. I suppose it is but I wouldn't take the chance.

Anything can happen.

[MercutioATC]

8. There's nothing like it.

It puts the BEST sex to shame...

[tedoll78]

10. I hate to say it..

but it makes me miss living near the Gulf. I'm betting that the hurricane parties in New Orleans last night were incredible..

[MuseRider]

12. HA!

My stupid local TV station sent one of our weather guys into the hurricane. All the way from Topeka, Kansas. How stupid is that? We are now getting our own video reports from our own stupid little station.

[RobertSeattle]

13. Had an investment idea

Create a series of those hurricane reistant dome ocean front houses (like the one NBC is using) about every 60 miles from George all the way to Texas. Rent them out to tourists during regular times, but during hurricane season rent them to news crews at $10,000/Day so they can get there "money shot". If you are really evil, build it close to a house you KNOW will go down in any wind over 90 mph so you can guarentee the "money shot" of the house collapsing.


:evilgrin:

15. CNN = Contains NO News......(good read)

They're NOT reporters, they're entertainers. It's about ratings - and which dumb employee will stand out in the hurricane the longest...and maybe, maybe get injured or killed so CNN can have more ratings.

Please understand that CNN is NOT a news channel. Proof here:

16. Contains No News (CNN)

That is the greatest take on the logo.

Interesting site. Thanks

[Tsiyu]

19. Awesome site! you should start a new thread veracity!

with that alone! I'm lucky to NOT have cable but then I miss the Daily Show and Sundance Channel so, pooh....

And I'd love to see Novak whirled away into the eye, as the poster below....

[veracity]

21. okay... I will

Just in case otheres haven't been to the site to read how the media distorts and under-reports the important news....

[kerry-is-my-prez]

17. It would be good if it was Novak, Hannity and Scarborough.....

n/t

[doubleplusgood]

20. reminds me of idiot L.A. TV reporter in 1992

It was the rainy season in L.A., February or March 1992, with a huge storm about to hit the coast. KCBS had a reporter, Harvy Levin, doing a report on the danger of possible flash floods while standing IN Malibu Creek ! Even the "news model" anchors back in the studio were dumbstruck by this.

[LibDemAlways]

22. I have a friend who works for KCBS,

and he claims reporters are ordered by management to stand in the rain without umbrellas or waterproof clothing when the rare big storm hits LA and the local yokel stations go on "stormwatch." Says it boosts ratings. LOL

[Swamp Rat]

23. Even worse is that infotainer on the Weather Channel - David Schwartz

He reminds me of Bill O'Reilly with a wig. :puke:

[Arugula Latte]

24. They should send Candy Crowley out into the storm

She won't get blown away!

Okay, I don't usually like fat jokes but that Bush-fellating mediawhore deserves it!

[anarchy1999]

25. Jeez, I'm in awe. In 1983 I'd just moved to Houston and Alicia was on

the way. I choose to stay. I'd always loved extreme weather, I grew up with it on a farm/ranch in SouthEastern Colorado and in Dallas. Tornadoes, no problem. My new husband worked for the phone company in Clear Lake, he was asked to stay, I had a new job at the Holiday Inn across the street for NASA. We stayed. I thought it would be fun, interesting to go through a hurricane. Alicia only hit a Cat 3, I have never been so scared in my life and I will never live through anything like it again, voluntarily. All night long I heard the roar of engines running through our apartment complex. We had teams of 3 and 4 people gathered at the windows holding them in. It is a night I never want to go through and never will again willingly. My love of nature and my respect of nature went up thousands of times that night.

I will never forget. It was only a Cat 3, inland about 20 miles when the eye went over within a mile or two.
