I am glad others have noticed the agenda driven coverage of TWC. I am afraid they have put millions of people in danger in their sole focus to get the republicans to cancel the convention. I found it most strange that as soon as they cancelled Monday...the storm models took the storm on a more western track. Call me paranoid, but there is no doubt that TWC is playing politics here with people’s lives.

TWC sucks but they don’t do the models do they? Just report on them.

But does anybody else find it HILARIOUS to see WC reporters wearing full head to toe bad weather gear while regular folks frolic in the background in bathing suits and shorts?

TWC doesn't control the operation of numerical weather prediction models, they are operated by multiple organizations within the National Weather Service, the Navy, Canada, the UK, and a European consortium.

The models are changing and NHC is moving the track because of aircraft reconnaissance ingesting more accurate data. To deliberately manipulate the raw model output would require an international conspiracy of simply breathtaking scope, and I doubt that as much as one neuron of anyone at the National Hurricane Center has had a political thought in the last week.

Any suggestion otherwise is the ultimate in conspiracy nut idiocy.
