Glad to see the hurricane experts checking in
Enter Fox News’s Shep Smith. Instead of simply reminding viewers of Scott’s pleas and detailing the destruction Hurricane Matthew could potentially cause, he decided to do something a little more dramatic, like shaming those who don’t evacuate with threats that Fox wouldn’t “cover their funerals” or “feel sorry for them.”
“Despite the warnings lots of people in the United States have said they’re not going anywhere. We will not cover your funerals and we will not feel sorry for you. They’re stocking up supplies, boarding up their homes, and hoping. Which is moronic.”
But Shep wasn’t finished. No, he wasn’t finished at all.
“See this? Melbourne? Daytona Beach? Jacksonville? This moves 20 miles to the west, and you and everyone you know are dead. All of you. Because you can’t survive it. It’s not possible. Unless you’re very, very lucky. And your kids die, too.”
