TV stations from coast to coast are getting prepared to cover the solar eclipse like it was a hurricane bearing down on the viewing area. 

What, I don't get and maybe I'm the only one....won't people actually go outside to watch the eclipse, instead of watching it on TV? 

Also, once the moon has passed by the sun, is there really any news? It's not like there will be damaged left behind, or a massive clean up effort. 

But that isn't stopping stations from treating the eclipse like it's the biggest story ever. 

WSMV in Nashville did a story about how they will cover the story. 

That's right.... the station did coverage about their coverage.
