Ike Lashes Galveston; Geraldo: ‘The Roof Just Came Off Hooters!’
As Fox’s Geraldo Rivera stood along the sea wall in Galveston, Texas and watched Hurricane Ike pummel the coastline Friday morning, the graphic on the bottom of the TV screen could not be more ominous. “People who stay face ‘certain death,’” it said, citing the dire prediction by the National Weather Service that residents of low-lying areas will not survive the storm.
Already, the conditions are brutal there: at one point Friday afternoon Mr. Rivera was knocked down by the waves along the sea wall. An hour later, reporting again from the sea wall, he exclaimed: “The roof just came off Hooters!”
