The result is that they're pulling out all the stops to retain viewers so they can stay alive.

Now we in the weather and climate field have to deal with the public's increased jumpiness.
Yeah ain't that the truth - I mean really haven't seen enough of Geraldo Rivera standing out on a beach in the middle of a hurricane reporting the wind is bad and the tide is high? NO - REALLY? Shocker! These meat heads go out there and tell us live that nobody should be out there doing what it is that they are doing! Enough already....!

It's great to read what you folks post here.
