CNN "Meteorologist" (generic: weatherman) Chad Myers loses it live on the air, after Host Carol Costello interrupts his Hurricane Katrina monologue.

Question:

1) Was Carol simply trying to clarify for the masses?
2) Did Chad drink too much coffee?
3) Is Carol a condescending bitch?
4) Should Chad have gone and smashed Carol?
5) Is Hurricane Katrina Chad's "Superbowl"?

bernadette · 08-30-2005, 06:03 PM

6) is Chad a pompous jerk?
7) does Chad have arrested development of age 2?

JumpinJesus · 08-30-2005, 07:54 PM

Ahh, battle of the egos.

I love it when the 24 hour news cycles gives journalists an overinflated sense of self-importance to the point that they fight over who gets to have the most airtime and spoken lines.

Get the answers to all these questions and more on the next episode of...

8) Chad has not slept for the past 72 hours, and has a BCC (blood caffeine content) level of 3.2.

(Did you know that there are other jobs for meteorologists other than being a weatherman? They also work in the environmental field doing air quality modeling studies of pollution sources. I considered a masters degree to do this at one point.)

Charlatan · 08-31-2005, 05:33 AM

I agree with redlemon (surprise)... while Chad may be an ass, the guy is working with little to no sleep, probably too much caffeine in his system and as a result is probably more irritable than usual.

I know I get just like that under those conditions.

If you watch closely he does seem to collect himself quite nicely at the end...

powerclown · 08-31-2005, 09:00 AM

Hehe...yeah #8 is probably correct.
Down by the crawl it's showing 4:30 am eastern.

Yes, there's somthing strangely compelling about people discussing CNN so intensely. That, or I need to check myself into a 12-Step Program asap.

JumpinJesus · 09-01-2005, 07:42 PM

If CNNfan is for "real" cnn fans, where is the forum for people who are only fans when they have a winning record or make it to the playoffs?

nofnway · 09-02-2005, 09:48 PM

if weatherpersons gone wild started sellin tapes for 19.99 on late night tv that'd be something.

What has this world come to. When a nofnway can't even walk down the street or post on a message board without being bludgeoned by the insensitive assault of an uncaring powerclown. Woe, do i yern for the days when a shruber could travel these seemingly safe internet .org without peering into every corner and shadow.
