Blog goes inside Houston TV coverage of Ike

Read this blog written by Mitch Clendening '84 for a detailed inside view of a Houston TV station covering (and surviving) Ike. The newsroom started leaking... their live truck got hit by a chunk of the Clear Lake Hilton... Clendening writes:

I've been blogging Ike from the KRIV Fox 26 newsroom. I'm a newscast director at KRIV, and I've been working on the continuous coverage since 5am Thursday (obviously taking breaks!). During those breaks, I've blogged our coverage on "Ike vs. Houston". Anybody curious about the workings of TV news might find it interesting.
