The fruitcakes can’t even tell the truth, when reporting the weather on the scene.

I’m thinking there could be some really funny videos made to illustrate what they do.

I saw similar last night on a NC local news feed. Guy was hanging on a pole by the crook of his arm. Bushes next to him barely moving.

Asshats.

Like the report 5 or 6 years ago when the reporter was rowing his boat through the treacherous storm. Behind him, a guy strolled through the picture and the water was just a few inches high.

Baltimore news stations sent reporters to Ocean City to inform us that the hurricane wasn’t going to hit there and they didn’t expect any serious damage.

One said the wind was picking up and she breathlessly saw a chair fall over.
