CNN Adds "Emergency Preparedness Contributor"
Smart move by CNN. It is imperative that we get preparedness information in front of people on a regular basis via the media channels they already access.
CNN has hired Lt. Gen. Russel Honore as an Emergency Preparedness Contributor for all shows. Honore is best known for his role as commander of Joint Task Force Katrina in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina three years ago.
"Everyone needs to be prepared for unexpected and uncontrollable events, and CNN is an ideal platform to inform and educate," said Honore in a press release, which you can read after the jump.
