Passage 2
It was a dark and stormy night. Somewhere, Gary Bettman was seething. All these events being cancelled, and not by him.
On TV, anticipation was so animated it was heatedly debated and, in the way that television is ghastly in its predilections, the coverage was both ghoulish and foolish. On CNN, it went like this--in the studio, an anchor lady talking to a weather guy who noted, "it will be onshore in less than three hours," at which point anchor lady declared, "and there he is, All Velshi! " Cut to All Velshi, barely upright and ankle-deep in water in Atlantic City, in a fierce, whipping wind.
"All, at any point in time we will yank this, if you are in any danger at all," anchor lady announced helpfully. Then, "what else do you see, All?" To which he answered, "There's some siding flying off buildings. Unless you're kinda like us and reporting, there's no reason to be out here."
Too true. On channel after channel, reporters standing in howling winds and pouring rain to illustrate that, yeah, the storm was arriving and it was wicked, just as predicted. In case anyone thought it was a con "job.
Then the Hurricane Sandy devastation in New Jersey and New York. Footage of flooded
subways, as if massive waves of water finding an outlet in large holes in the ground was a surprise.
In Toronto's east end, a tree fell. Power went out. CP24 savoured i_t all, at last some real, honest-to-God disaster effects.
For all the raw footage and dramatic scenes of flooding, fires, rescue workers waist-deep in water and darkened buildings lashed by wind, television struggles to convey the authenticity of disaster-inducing storms. The fallback position is disaster-movie cliche and panicked voices in a studio commanding viewers to look (just look!) at this footage of flooding! The term "weather porn" doesn't do it justice.
