BAY AREA STATIONS SEND CREWS TO COVER HURRICANES
The coverage of recent natural disasters, such as Hurricanes Harvey and Irma and now a magnitude-8 earthquake in Mexico, is getting major air time on every television station in the nation. And, while stations continue to rely on their networks to provide them with feeds and live shots from the locations of these disasters, many in major markets like the Bay Area are sending their own news crews to cover the story.
