OK Intellicast! Time to
step to the forefront. Your opportunity knocks! A window has been opened for you.
"The Weather Channel" has gone OVER THE EDGE!
Last night, Mike Bettes had Dr. Heidi Cullen on as "a guest". Now
for those of you not familiar with Heidi, she is one of those "junk
scientists" who believes the Chicken Little story that human beings are
powerful enough to destroy the entire earth. In fact, she recently made a
HIGHLY controversial comment; stating that any meteorologist who
disagrees with the global warming concept, should have their credentials from
the AMS removed immediately.
So what did "junk scientist" Heidi do last night? What levels
has "The Weather Channel" stooped to which would allow a new player
on the playing field of weather forecasting? (Such as INTELLICAST....)
THEY WENT THROUGH PRESIDENT BUSH'S SPEECH LAST NIGHT....LINE FOR LINE!!!
Yes, "The Weather Channel" has become the new
MSNBC/FOX-News/CNN of cable/satellite TV!!!
We all saw the downhill slide coming. Instead of reporting the weather,
they started with their little feature productions like "Storm
Stories". OK, that was interesting. But then they added
"It Could Happen Tomorrow". And so began the slippery slope of
weather feature programs and less time on weather reporting.
A few months ago they added Heidi to the mix with her "junk science"
global warming reports. To "The Weather Channel's" credit, they
did stick her in a time slot that was almost useless. But the point is,
the more of these non-weather reporting programs that "The Weather
Channel" has, the LESS actual weather reporting there is!
So go for it Intellicast! (I simply choose them since they are my favorite
Internet weather source.) But this is an opportunity for anybody to jump
in. Accuweather, Weather Underground.....the door is open!
Strike while the iron is hot!
(And by the way, what is it with Matt Drudge lately? Stories like
this are presented to him every day of the week, and ignored!
This is FAR more interesting than who is in at "The Oscars!")
