Like 23K others, I'm watching a live stream of a Honolulu television station previewing the tsunami that's likely to hit Hawaii in the next couple of hours. I wondered on Twitter if any of the news orgs are launching helicopters to provide a view of the surge making landfall. Brian Stelter of the NY Times notes: "we're about to watch a tsunami reach shore live on TV via Hawaii's local stations. Has that ever happened before?" Tommy Russo is going to stream the tsunami landfall from Paukukalo on Qik. I started a photo feed that tracks "tsunami" -- there are already 3 pics in the feed. If you have any info on media coverage of the landfall please post a comment here. Obviously safety comes first. But it also seems like an opportunity to make some media history. |
