R.I.P. Bill Karins

Weather Plus Meteorologist

"Born in 1974 in Albany, NY, Bill Karins got his start chasing tornadoes at NBC affiliate KSNT-TV in Topeka, Kansas. Working in North Carolina at local station WCTI-TV, he reported from inside the eye of hurricanes -- covering hurricanes Bertha and Fran in 1996, and hurricane Bonnie in 1998. Bill spent time forecasting winter storms in Bangor, Maine, and also covered hurricanes Charley, Jeanne, Frances and Ivan in South Florida."

Sounds like he’s dedicated to his craft which doesn’t make him an easy target for propaganda. What an anomaly in a news room, where craft usually comes 10th or 11th behind a whole list of required PC viewpoints.

What difference does extensive field experience with his subject make? He’s obviously not a “smart people”.
