No different than a war journalist, they go where the story is. They are trained and paid to go. Normal folks should leave

I didn't know there was training to stand in fast moving water and dodging debris flying through the air.
-
There is not really training to dodge bullets either but they do their best

I I understand your point, but I can look out a window and tell it's bad out.
-
No you can't. You can tell how bad it is outside your window. That's a home movie. A reporter has to move and see to report a bigger picture

If you live where a Cat 4 hurricane hits then you don't need to see it on tv to believe it. You can see rising water & stuff flying around
-
Yeah, but I don't live in such an area, and so can't conceive of it. The reporter is not just reporting for you. They are reporting for me.

They report under dramatic conditions to make themselves look intrepid. In reality, it just means we can't hear a damn thing they're saying.
-
Which is a good thing because they just keep saying the same thing over and over and over.
-
But they do it intrepidly.

They know the risks. And don't pretend you don't like watching them on the 'front lines' seeing all that crazy footage

Speak for yourself!!!

That is what I've been saying!! I think it demeans the seriousness of the storm and gives false sense that it's not that bad.
