What the hell?

What the hell is wrong with the folks who broadcast news/weather on TV?

Flipping dials just now (okay, pushing buttons) I went to NBC, ABC and the Weather Channel at the 6:30 PM. In each instance there was a team of broadcasters on the ground in New Orleans all saying the same thing, "This place is looking like a ghost town."

Well perhaps it's because the people who live there have learned a lesson from Katrina. It certainly seems Mayor Naggin learned something.

There's a mandatory evacuation in progress so what the F*CK are you jerkwads doing on the streets of the city. Especially, as one of them announced, the storm is moving more quickly than predicted. (That's going to bring it on shore early Monday morning...less than 12 hours away. On the other hand, it will not have time to strengthen beyond the Category 3 it has already reached.)

Of course you know that ever since that dipstick Dan Rather tied himself to a lamppost, all those years ago, it's now considered a sign that one has "arrived" to be in the middle of hurricane.

The most we can hope for is that they - or at least their cameras - get blown down the street.
