COMMENTS: Waist Deep in Mud
The astonishing sight of the waist-deep caked-in wall of mud that wiped out homes in the canyons of Highland Cal was highlighted on all three newscasts: NBC's Miguel Almaguer, CBS' Bill Whitaker, ABC's Mike von Fremd. Thus the Pacific storms were NBC's lead for the second time this week, CBS' for the third. ABC also led with the storms three times this week--but not today. The other disaster facing southern California is the beach pollution from toxins in the storm runoff. NBC substitute anchor Carl Quintanilla featured the response from San Diego's Baywatch: lifeguard lieutenant John Everhart described rescuing four dozen guests from a flooded Mission Valley hotel.
