Everything Else TWC / Re: Mike Bettes' Controversy
« on: November 16, 2011, 07:22:25 PM »
As seen on Open Mike tonight:
Will Astle: "I think it's rather hypocritical for you to bash the casual storm chaser while taking their free video and plastering it all over TWC. You, TWC, and other news outlets have made this bed, now you have to sleep in it."
Derrick: "What Mike Bettes is not telling you in that rant is about how many times I and so many other chasers have missed 'THE video' because we broke off our chase to help someone who is hurt or in need following a tornado."
Zach Roberts: "This game of, we at so and so network believe storm chasing is out of control, but please tune in to see the most amazing tornado chase ever on Sunday at 9am is ridiculous."
Scott Longmore: "Please, you know as well as I do that each year it's been getting more and more dangerous to chase because of a few, albeit a growing number of irresponsible chasers."

Everything Else TWC / Mike Bettes' Controversy
« on: November 16, 2011, 07:08:14 PM »
As many of you know, last week, Mike Bettes discussed storm chasers getting too close to tornadoes on Open Mike, mainly focusing on Andy Gabrielson's car flipping over in a storm (tried to turn around in the mud and flipped into a ditch...nothing to do with the storm or tornado). This is making lots of people, chasers in particular, calling Mike a hypocrite because of how close he got to tornadoes on Vortex2. According to Mike's Facebook page, he will be having a Viewer's Rebuttal on WCL tonight where viewers can voice their opinions on the controversey. What do all of you think about this? I will be posting updates as Mike discusses this.

DirecTV EAS always plays music, normally whatever is playing on Music Choice's 'Pop Hits' at the time. Check out this video:

Not even a hint of an EAS Test on Comcast Cable of Memphis. Then again, they have a suckish in-house EAS as it is (see video below)
This is what I saw today at 1 PM CST:
Nick Walker: "Well, we have a programming note for you. In just a few seconds, there will be a nationwide test of the EAS. Again, this is only a test. The test will begin shortly" (Looks to the monitor as in anticipation of the test)
Vivian Brown: (Big Picture Forecast)
Nick Walker: "The nationwide test of the EAS is now over"
