Weather Channel Reporter Fakes Severe Winds On Live TV [Video]

With all of the #FakeNews floating around the internet lately, it really comes as no surprise that even the Weather Channel is getting in on it.

In order to sensationalize the newscast Mike Seidel, a reporter for The Weather Channel, is fighting some extremely heavy and fictitious winds.

The video starts out by showing the reporter in the rain and wind (which the caption claims are gusting at almost 50 mph).  As the video continues, Mike appears to be barely able to stand.  That's when two guys just stroll on by in the background, demonstrating that the winds aren't really that bad.
