Look at all the chasers. And not all show up. They will cause a death at some point. And prevent TV chasers from getting the story, thus endangering many lives.
Chaser convergence is an issue, but giving deference to "tv chasers" is a horshit reason to get your panties twisted over when media conglomerates rape storm chasers as practice. They're owned by billion dollar corporations that believe storm chasers make a living off of "credit". I'll never side with a news channel on this issue.

I find it interesting the northern parts of central Oklahoma go to the Norman office and not Wichita.
I get it since it’s the same state and everything but it’s much close to the Wichita office

I agree but later in his post he sort of clarified he took issue with "pay chasers" aka ppl paying to have chasers take them to the tornado and I tend to agree about that as that would seemingly provide little scientific or reporting value

Its not siding with TV chasers, I believe there are better ones. My main point is TV has the most wide reaching coverage. The ratings are off the charts and they do not show commercials.
To reach the masses it comes from TV. If another non TV chaser disrupts them thats less timely info for the public. And its worse at night where TV chasers know the roads and other chasers get lost and clog roads.
I will say, you can get great info on social media. But not to the numbers TV gets.
Its all about reach and TV can reach more and thus save more lives.
Thats all I’m saying
