John and Tammy, KSON, San Diego, with The Tsunami Is Coming
What do you do when there’s an earthquake in one part of the world and in another, they issue a tsunami warning? You find someone there, who’s experiencing it in real time, and get them on your show to tell their story first hand. Nothing beats it. You have choice here: ignore the story, communicate the same information everyone else is giving, or place yourself in the middle of it with someone there. John and Tammy, KSON, San Diego know it’ll always be option C. Hawaii has tsunami warnings and a co-worker happens to be there. This is an easy decision. They got the co-worker on who graphically detailed everything happening on his end. Simple story telling with curious people and someone who can answer all the questions.
