Quite possibly the best publicity they will ever have and nobody gets to see it.

What? Yes, this apparently happened. http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense ... watch.html Featured are Tom Niziol, the channel’s winter weather expert, showing off a glitzy “ICE” ring; Greg Postel, the hurricane specialist, with a giant blinged-out gold Weather Channel logo around his neck; and, most memorably, Jim Cantore in a fur, surrounded by female meteorologists. All the while, there’s a party atmosphere, with Champagne flowing freely and close-in shots of weather forecasters puffing cigars. http://ftvlive.com/todays-news/2014/11/ ... ls-bad-rap "At the time, they had recently hired had hired Sam Champion for millions of dollars, initiated a huge new studio build that cost big bucks and started taking over The Weather Channel's airwaves with less weather and more shows like "Fat Guys In the Woods." The rap video was to be used as a sales tool as it showed The Weather Channel's talent, sales and marketing people all partying it up. In the video, champagne was flowing, the expense cigars were lit and the big bucks party was in full swing. Not long after this video was made, The Weather Channel started dropping staff and cutting corners wherever they could." |
