Here are screen shots of the weather com web page and the accuweather.com web page taken on January 31, 2023.

Note the use of inflammatory language from left to right: “Deadly”, “Terrifying” “How to stay safe” and “Multi-vehicle pileup”. Every headline was spun into fear and negativity.

From Accuweather, comes “Dangerous”, “Deadly”, “Kills At Least Three”, “Prepare for Dangerous Cold”, “Killed”, “Slips off Highway”, “Snaps Power Poles” – all weather stories are scary, terrifying, fear inducing!

Are you feeling a little bit manipulated?
