I do believe the weather is a simple example of all the rest of the news and how reported.

In my humble opinion.
"Back in Erie", did the weather folks have all the tools they have today ?

"Back in Erie", did the weather folks have their own channel and educated meteorologist's available ?

Are we now calling the weather report "fake news" ?
