Hurricane season floods weathermen with fatigue
Now Im going blind here with this item, kind of guesstimating what happend, but I think that a 7News satellite truck lost it’s dish during the hurricane. Diane Fernandez was on on the phone from Stewart, FL and mentioned they’ve lost a dish and have no video connection to Miami HQ.
More details asap
Update dish isn’t lost, just slightly damaged and will probably be fixed in a day

10 broke the rules
In one of their promos they just ran where viewers call in to say how nice 10′s coverage of Jeanne was, they played a call from someone who says “I’m an avid WSVN viewer but I find myself glued to WPLG’s coverage….” Bad bad bad they should know better the golden rule of TV – you’re not supposed to mention other stations, other stations don’t exist, you’re THE only one and everything you do and say is like there’s nobody else to get the same info from. Period.
