I normally don't like watching TV coverage of hurricanes, because it is always sensationalized and apparently calculated to evoke panic.
But today was different.
We watched quite a bit of news of various channels, and I was actually impressed by the coverage I saw on our local ABC affiliate, WFTV Channel 9. Maybe they've learned that in an era when hype and panic are in the air we breathe, the only way to get people's attention is to be calm and reasonable.
