Weatherman Slams 'Bachelorette' Fans Protesting Interruption

A weatherman lashed out at viewers on live TV after fans of “The Bachelorette” posted complaints on social media that Monday night’s episode was interrupted by emergency coverage of tornadoes in the Ohio area. “This is a dangerous situation, OK!" meteorologist Jamie Simpson said as he delivered the weather warnings. "I’m done with you people, I really am. This is pathetic." The Fox 45 meteorologist said the whining started nearly immediately online after the station cut in with live coverage. #InsideEdition

There's no reason for him to apologize. I can't believe we live in a world where people complain about a show being interrupted for a tornado warning.

[fairylovr]

Ahh he’s 110% in the right! Bravo to that weatherman!

[TeddieSook]

he shouldn’t have to apologize to anyone!

[amusementaddicts]

Our city was destroyed, Jamie Simpson saved countless lives with his tough love.

[_wildfire_]

He should not have to apologize when his job is to do his best to help others stay safe!!

[AbhilashGregory]

Give that weatherman ...MAN OF THE YEAR Award!

I live in the area where one of the tornadoes touched down, and it was a tense and stressful night. The weather people on multiple channels did a great job of emphasizing how dangerous this situation was. They probably saved lives. Jamie Simpson is everyone's favorite weather person around here, and this just furthered cemented that. He's a good guy who was genuinely concerned about people staying safe.

Lisa Guerrero would've confronted the tornado

Being a victim of this violent tornado, I thank God for the persistence of this weather man. He saved lives of people whom I love and care for!

[jaylenwright]

Never thought about it but meteorologists and weather men do do more than report the weather, they keep ppl safe by warning them. Thx 👌🏾

[josephreynolds]

He shouldn't have to apologize. He was trying to do his job and save lives.

[tripleastacz]

Nothing to see here people just natural selection taking place...

[jeffcunningham]

So happy he went off about people. WHO CARES if you miss a show. It’s a tornado and even killed someone!

[crazywerewolflady]

Good for him. He is now my favorite weather man.

[Bigbirdsonly]

I live in the area and he was very right, there were multiple tornadoes Monday plus very heavy rain so good for Jamie Simpson!

[CShannon]

Awesome Job Mr Meteorologist! People need to get over themselves, tornado readiness and survival is more important than that stupid show.

[kevinfowler]

I live in this area. Jamie Simpson is a real nice guy. I respect the hell out of him. I got to meet him when he first started in the area. A real man of his work.

He shouldn’t have to apologize.
Y’all know reruns exist.
The show can be reran.
But you can’t.

[jhendersonic]

I live in Iowa. We’ve had dozens of tornadoes this month. I care 0% if they interrupt shows to cover these terrifying storms. Team weatherman all the way!! With Netflix/Hulu/etc. interruptions don’t even matter.

[carsonkien]

I am in Dayton, this was a big storm, your lives depend on it... and you’re complaining because it interrupts a TV show? this generation...
