CNN, MSNBC and the Weather Channel have all had excellent coverage.
Fox News continues to exist in its own little world. Once when I flipped over to Fox they had some WW2 veteran from Guadacanal as a guest. I think this had something to do with Fox being obedient fascists with coverage of Bush's speech in San Diego this afternoon. At another point when I flipped on Fox, they had on some of their whacked out pundits gasbagging it over Hugo Chavez.
