So instead of never being accurate, the temperature is always going to be either really "high" or we might not even see a forecast for the day? ;)
;D

I remember him on the Johnny Carson show, how the hell did he get so rich?

He got into the television production side of things in the early 90's. First he had an interview show, then a stand up comedy show, showcasing young comedians. They weren't very good, but they were safe and didn't rock the boat, so they got syndicated a lot to stations that needed filler for the very late night slots (2am - 4am).
From there, he threw money into safe documentary and lifestyle shows that had high syndication value. He also bought into a few digital stations, so he reaps a lot of cash from those.
Smart guy.

Smart to buy the weather channel tho? We don't need a TV channel to find out about the weather anymore. If it turns a profit by just showing the weekly forecast, I say it's a cartel front for laundering dollars.

nothing more than recombination...
Genetic blending/DNA gumbo.
Good for Allen and best wishes for continued success.
America is still the land of opportunity.

He got it cheap, the last sale of it was for around $3 billion. It still bills well, and gets good viewership during major storms. They're slowly trying to change it into a general interest channel also. Throwing money into natural disaster documentaries and tv movies, weather sci-fi, etc...

Didn't know he had that type of money. He's come a long way since Real People.

At first I thought it said The Weather is now black-owned & operated which made me think the sun won’t come up until noon everyday.

Weird looking kids

Ugly. It's ok to say it. Some children are just goddamn ugly. Some are so ugly they're not going to outgrow it. That's where ugly adults come from.

That's interesting. Seems like you know a lot about all of this.
I just wonder if they'll be smart enough to avoid "global warming" and "climate change" propaganda docs during late fall/early spring when bigger snow storms have a funny way of happening surrounded by days in the 60-70's in the midwest?

Ha, I just looked The Weather Channel's schedule. Lots of scripted reality tornado chasing, prospecting, and rescue shows. It's hilarious, but I guess it's what's needed to turn a buck.

Unless you have an iPhone that comes already installed with a weather app that powered by “The weather channel”
As long as they don’t push the bullshit “climate change” on my local weather, I’m fine with it. Otherwise I go to Surfline

Smart man, decent wife, ugly kids...

So if the ground is white with snow are they going to call it "racist"?

First smart ass response I thought of was "maybe they'll call it blow since they're ok with that", but....
They've turned beautiful white cocaine into discolored crack rocks so there goes that one.

The Weather Channel has long since passed its peak. Why would anyone buy that? It’s like buying JC Penny or Sears.

You forget about senior citizens...a lot of them will watch The Weather Channel all day. It has a reach of 79 million and the audience is very predictable so he can simply advertise based on it.

I'll still watch it until he has a weather man that says, "Yo, Yo, Yo it be cold out." Then I'm switching the channel..
