Who really cares anyway. I mean why do we talk about this so much and expect to put these people to such a higher standard. We don't care if someone calls themself a journalist without going to Journalism School. Should a J-School degree be something that sets a standard as well??? As long as someone can get the information out they work for me. Some hardcore mets that I've met have no business presenting the weather on TV. |

"Who really cares"? Lots of us do!
Again, using a title when you haven't earned it is wrong. I have no quarrel with personalities doing weather, as long as they are not addressed as a member of a scientific profession.
And when the information given out is bad or just plain wrong, who will disneyfreak and others in asimilar mindset turn to?
