Gulf coast residents prepare ahead of Hurricane Isaias landfall – video
Boarding up windows and filling sandbags and fuel tanks are part of routine hurricane preparation for residents of the Gulf coast. Isaias strengthened into a category 3 hurricane on Friday morning as it barreled toward the US Gulf coast, and states of emergency have been declared in Alabama, Florida
What the coverage shows
All three outlets frame the story around Gulf Coast hurricane coverage, with CBS News leading first on the storm’s approach and then on its effects after landfall. The Guardian US is the only outlet to foreground resident preparations and to mention states of emergency in Alabama and Florida. 60 Minutes is the only one to emphasize video of the storm’s landfall and the damage shown in those clips.
