Not to diminish the suffering from Florence in any way, but this is absolutely fraudulent.

This is a prime example of why people DO NOT trust the news anymore.
They create news for ratings and dollars.

The story is not as sexy without shots like this.

UPDATE:

TWC responds to viral video:

Yeah it looks bad but it's hard to stand in 40 mph and greater winds for several hours doing reports. He said this is some of the worst we've seen. It probably was right before then but they caught a break for a little bit there.

Weather Channel was just doing damage control. The put together a collage of videos showing their weather men getting blown by the wind just now. Idiots.

I've seen this very crap in the N.O. weather broadcasts when a big storm is heading our way. I watched a spot where the reporter was in the CBD doing the same crap that guy was doing and in the background there were 2 guys in suits strolling down the street not struggling at all to maintain their journey.

Those weather reporters are drama queens.

Mike Seidel is a pussy.

She asks me to say "I'm surprised he's not in Kansas while this storm is going on" and mention that following him is "one of (her) favorite passtimes"

Weather channel has no credibility.
They have one purpose, sell commercials.
Drauma (fake news) pulls in viewers.

I personally know two former Weather channel personalities. They are all attention whores.
