Their statement shows how stupid they think people are....

The Weather Channel issued the following statement to BuzzFeed: “It’s important to note that the two individuals in the background are walking on concrete, and Mike Seidel is trying to maintain his footing on wet grass, after reporting on-air until 1:00 a.m. ET this morning and is undoubtedly exhausted.”

LMAO.....Michael Kay was talking about this.
And he leans with the wind...Obviously hoping for a face plant....He has to be so ashamed and it would not surprise me if he is done and that statement from TWC is so stupid...Who could really take this clown serious anymore? I suppose the people that say "hey the storm was moving 3MPH and the wind just hasn't got to the other guys yet"...As a matter of fact that statement would have been just as stupid as the one they put out...
A day after the Weather Channel was praised for its outstanding green screen graphics depicting Hurricane Florence’s 10-foot storm surge, a reporter for the network is facing allegations he exaggerated wind speeds out in the field.
In the report shot in South Carolina Friday, a journalist is seen rocking back and forth fighting to stand in the face of 75-mile per hour winds.
Twitter users, however, keenly observed the journalist appeared to be exaggerating the intensity of the wind speeds as two men casually strolled into the shot behind him apparently impervious to Florence’s devastating winds.
Does “CNN own the Weather Channel?” asked one user, accusing the network of airing “fake news.”
