I didn't see it, but I saw a report that stated he made a big deal about the guy in the water and it was just a guy on a tether out to retrieve a propane tank. No emergency, just garbage collection.
I watched via CNN all day and the other media - the weather people were just knocking each other over the heads to see who could get the wettest and closest to needing rescue. Buncha Dumb...oh, lets not insult the donkeys.
