When we say we now have the ability to deliver news 24 hours a day, we mean it.
Here's what awaited me this morning as I headed toward the office.
A massive explosion rocked a fertilizer plant in Texas. The death toll is now between 5-15 and hundreds were injured.
A fire overnight routed people from their home in Clifton Heights. Thankfully, it does not appear that any of the injuries was serious.
A fire just after 4 a.m. has damaged Penn Wood High School in Lansdowne. The school will be closed today and Friday. Investigators are looking into reports that separate fires were intentionally set inside the building.
And of course there are updates from Boston, where the story and whether or not there was a suspect or possibly someone in custody seemed to changed every five minutes yesterday afternoon.
And just for good measure, we did our 'Live From the Newsroom' show last night on the very hop topic of gun control. Pretty good timing. The show came just a couple of hours after the U.S. Senate rejected a proposal put forth by Pa. Republican Sen. Pat Toomey to expand background checks.
The local radio station (yes, KYW is still the soundtrack to my life!) boasts that it is all news, all the time.
I know the feeling.
