Hurricane Wilma TV coverage

I can't stand watching the Hurricane Wilma coverage. It's like they are trying to make up for their failings and finger pointing fun after a hurricane more than twice the size took out portions of three whole states.

I'm so sick of it. It is so hypocritical and always hearing mayor such and such isn't going to be like New Orleans and on and on. Yeah and you don't have the weight of Mississippi River and several lakes crashing down on you either.

There is no comparing and should be no comparing of hurricane preparedness before and after Katrina.

Ok my little rant!

1. I can't watch it, either.

The TV hairdos see genuinely sad that it's not a category 5.

Florida leads everyone for hurricane preparedness & Living in Florida, I don't have a problem with that.

3. Did anyone see Al Roker knocked down by the wind?

I tuned in while he was struggling to get up with the help of a couple of staffers.

I don't know why TV stations think it's a good idea to send people into potential danger like this.

And watching newspeople getting their hair blown around is getting extremely tiresome.
