Television Rocker Report

Yes, the unthinkable has happened: The Weather Channel is interesting. The man who made it so interesting? Bob Stokes, their “lead anchor” (sorry Bob, but you’re still just a weather man). After running his original co-anchor off with physical and verbal abuse, and not getting fired for it, he realized that he was so valuable to The Weather Channel

The Weather Channel is up for sale, with some estimates placing its value at $5 billion, but new developments reveal a shocking cloud hanging over the network that may jeopardize its sale: a salacious sexual harassment scandal featuring co-anchors Hillary Andrews and Bob Stokes.

Hillary Andrews sued weatherman Bob Stokes and won-- now The Weather Channel wants to hush things up. Too late.

The weather channel just lost a large sexual harassment suit.

The Weather Channel has lost its way, according to John Coleman, who founded the channel in 1982.

The Weather Channel is for sale in an auction that could raise US$5-billion and put a 30% stake in Canada's own Weather Network in play. Landmark Communications Inc., which is a privately held television and newspaper company owned by Virginia's Batten family, is exploring a breakup.

The Weather Channel was caught editing the Wikipedia article, "List of ethnic slurs" with one they thought that was important enough to be there.

Lewis Black likes the Weather Channel because it gives him something to complain about. But the station's environmental efforts are exemplary in a business that is the biggest waste of power on the planet.
