While Governor O'Malley, County Executive Rick Pollitt, Mayors Jim Ireton and Rick Mehan depended on the professionals at WBOC, obviously Salisbury News had it all wrong.
How could I have been so inaccurate.
As the images above clearly show how devastation, I should apologize for being so harsh on the Main Stream Media and their "SEVERE WEATHER" reports.
Pictures clearly do NOT lie. I should have known to trust the media and of course our politicians first.

oh, the humanity!...
COME ON MAN we all know we can;t trust ANY Politicians and more so our Md. Politicians...and then to want to drink their kool-aid too...u all must be nuts..storm turned out to be the biggest Media / Political Bust of the year.....LOL..
OMGOsh!
That just CRACKED ME UP!
if that is all you had in your small coverage area, good for you
i agree that there wasn't the "devastation" that was promised by the msm. but i have one question: how did the flower get to be on top of the fallen screen? shouldn't it be crushed to a mangled pulp under the screen? lol
So I guess we should all shove the lives that were lost under the rug and laugh about everything else?
I'll say one thing - SBYnews is all over this event. You won't get this type coverage from The Daily Times, WBOC, WMDT, or any other media - including the Maryland Reporter.
This media continually amazes me at in its clarity and perspective. I must admit that it proves to be more reliable and trustworthy than any of the other medias.
BIG problem will be the next evacuation. As Joe pointed out this was a cat 1 hurricane. Way too many folks doing the old CYA have a reasoned view of the weather, to just use plain common sense.
Give WBOC credit.... they did find an oceanfront condo with a piece of siding missing
Been going to send you pictures of all the destruction at my house.. must have had 6 or 7 twigs fall off along with a dozen leaves. OH THE HUMANITY!
Not all of the lives lost were because of the danger of the storm. Some of them could've been prevented, with a little common sense. Accidents do happen too, with or without a storm. It is a shame if one person dies on a sunny day or in a storm but don't blame all of them as being "caused" by the storm, just because they are "correlated" with the storm. People should learn what statistics mean.
U R 2 Funny!!!!
Gosh the insurance group wannts 1,000.00 deductable to fix this damage.
Crisfields new multi million dollar four story brick nursing home was evacuated. The residents were moved to the western shore. Now I would call that over kill
wow, there was alot of damage done here. so glad we sustained minimal damage.
7:51 PM
The wind was blowing. The wind blew the rose out of the way while the screen fell. When the wind died down the rose resumed its original place.
Elementary my dear Watson.
i was trying to tell everyone there was no need for all the hype. but my comments never got printed ;;
Crisfield's nursing home is not brick (except for the water table)the rest of it is just Dry-vit (imitation stucco).
Yes, 8:26. I'm sure you are a severe storm expert.
The amount of Monday-morning quarterbacking here is impressive.
A friend of mine in Parsonsburg had 5 trees come down in her yard. Glad the owner of this house in the picture you posted was so blessed. Some DID have destruction. Tired of all the negative comments on here. For all of you who did not have property damage, be thankful. And be thanking God that nobody around here was killed because of Hurricane Irene.
Thanks for letting me post my thoughts, Mr. Albero.
AFTER KATRENA THE MANS ON EDGE . I WORKED THE CLEAN UP AND RECOVERY. THINGS I SEEN WERE AWFUL! IM GLAD YALL DID,NT GET HURT MUCH YOU CAN THANK GOD FOR THAT. FROM JACK D. VETRA JR. TUSCUMBIA ALABAMA
I believe alot of injuries and deaths were prevented especially in Ocean City.
If Mayor Meehan had not evacuated Ocean City there would have been alot of fools wanting to go in the ocean during the hurricane.
I remember as a child hearing horror stories of about a dozen people mostly in Baltimore getting sucked into storm drains and drowning.
It was during the flooding caused by Hurricane Agnes which by the time it hit MD was a tropical storm.
People should not be out during any kind of situation like this.
Better that we were lead by New Orleans Mayor Nagin and just turn a blind eye to all the warnings and left people to die...right????
I'll take an excess of caution over a crap shoot any day.
Very funny. A lot of people lost their lives Joe. I am sick of people like you. I really wish you had lost yours.
Your jealousy of WBOC is almost as bad as your obsession with that Brewington girl.
As a visitor to Ocean City each summer I was concerned about how the hurricane would affect the area. Your Mayor and emergency personnel are to be commended for looking out for everyones welfare.
