‘Hey Wolf, Tell Chris to Get the Hell Out of the Water’

Chris Lawrence is usually at the Pentagon for CNN. Today he’s in the Chesapeake Bay. Not near it. In it.

Lawrence is reporting from Chesapeake Beach, MD where Hurricane Irene’s full force will be paying a visit in a few hours. After Lawrence wrapped up his 6pmET report, anchor Wolf Blitzer brought in Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley. The first words out of O’Malley’s mouth: “Hey, Wolf, do me a favor. Tell Chris to get the hell out of that water, would ya?”

“Yea, I’ll tell him,” said Blitzer.
