Tornados in Alabama

C

cceng1

Just returned from a 3 day trip to Tuscaloosa to help out the CC stns there......one thing came to mind while I was there as the LOCAL CC stations were pumping out news and info for the LOCAL population.....you we keep hearing about the demise of "over the air broadcasting".....

HOW'S THAT STORM COVERAGE ON PANDORA WORKING OUT FOR YOU?

OR

HOW'S THAT SMARTPHONE WORKING WITH THE CELL NETWORKS DOWN OR BUSIED OUT?

OR

HOW'S THAT STREAMING OF A MILLION RADIO STATIONS WORKING OUT FOR YOU WITH NO POWER OR INTERNET?

Dont get me wrong..... all of the new technology is important but it will NEVER replace what radio is doing in Alabama right now.

Despite its human induced flaws, radio is the easiest way to convey info to the community.

And sadly, we only see this during times like a disaster, and not on an ongoing, daily basis. Because doing that costs money. Right?
