Why are the TV stations hyping Weatherbug?

You can thank AOL for some of that Chris. With the last two versions of AOL they got REALLY bad about installing all sorts of crap all over your system that is hard to get rid of, and you can't load AOL without it.

I finally let it go once they abandoned the Community Leader program (although I STILL have a free account there I don't use). AOL is the worst thing ever, although it works well for what it is designed to do, namely, suck in newbie computer people that don't know what a "real" ISP is.
 
"Ah yes, but in cases like this, the first impression is often the last."

I realize that, and would never put it on my PC because I don't need it, but to scare people off because of something that happened 3 years ago seems a bit extreme.
