"I think that the media wants to make this storm look much worse than what it really is because for the 48 hours they have been hyping it at the worst storm to ever hit the United States and they just do not want to be proven wrong in their predictions as they usually are most of the time."
AGREED!!!!
I guess that would explain all the severe damage reports from the NWS? The media isn't hyping what is being reported by emergency management.
Damage is extensive.
This storm is still as strong as Charley was at landfall. And it's much, much, MUCH larger. Folks are having to climb to their roofs in NO. And you think this storm has been hyped? You have NO IDEA how bad things might be on the ground right now. It took them a day to figure out that Andrew trashed Homestead.
No no, this storm is very dangerous, no doubt.
they always do....everything is a soap opera drama with the media grubs. Triumph the Insult Comic Dog would make a great actor reporter.
