Floods in the news

I love Polish news programs. This week I’ve been watching TVP’s Piotr KraÅ›ko bestriding the floods like a news colossus.
Wednesday: You can tell it’s a flood because I’m standing in water.
Thursday: I ride the mighty fire engine.
Friday: Fear. He has none.
Amateurs!
Straight face. She knows how to keep one.






Hang on. That bottom photo has a major news studio in Sandomierz, and the reporter standing in the floods in Warsaw. Shurely shome mishtake?
Oh yesh.
It’s called “new and improved geography”.
Piotr Krasko is a great reporter. His Hurricane Katrina LIVE report was epic. Too bad i can’t find it on the internet anymore.
here it is

the photo in the background ! :D
Excellent! He cannot be stopped.
He looks like a collosus as he maintains his pose. In fact, looking like that, he should have just stood along the WisÅ‚a with one hand up, and the other remaining on his hip, shouting “Thou shalt not pass!”
Maybe I have Lord of the Rings on my mind with Arwen pulling rivers around and Gandalf’s booming voice…
You can see the lady reporter is just pissed off she has to get wet whereas Piotr is relishing it. He’s the Bear Grylls of TVP1. Surprised he’s not yanking fish out of the water and biting their heads off but then with his left hand glued to his hip he’d probably drop the microphone.
They should employ Dziwisz, he could walk ON water.
hm; to jest Polska wÅ‚asnie no i Sandomierz…. przykre, ze tylu ludzi pod woda…

I almost feel sorry for Kraśko. To be directed to local news of such a low importance as our flood after the internationally acclaimed Katrina!
Anderson Cooper eat your heart out!
Seems somebody like the picture so much they nicked it:
