Is anyone else getting tired of these Weather Channel wannabe attempts at being CNN or Fox News with their big, flashy "breaking news" graphics every time something happens in the world of weather? It just bugs me to no end that they are going down that sleazy street in an effort to boost ratings.
Here's the biggest problem with it: while they are covering the breaking news of damage reports and all that from severe weather, they are taking time away from covering the severe weather as it happens (the stuff that they need to be focusing on in order to protect lives.) There is a reason that in the old days of the Weather Channel they only discussed what had happened AFTER the storms had passed or when there was a lull in activity.
