Default Re: I gotta ask this about TV hurricane coverage. Hope it\'s not too

Howard, the reporter isn't just there to stand in the wind and rain for the 5-second live shot -- they also get what's called "a story," whereby the reporter looks around the area, talks to locals, gathers information, and forms an entire piece that is either filmed there or pieced together later.
