Ernesto is coming! Ernesto is coming! Ernesto . . . not so much.
A lot of papers chose to downplay it. Interestingly, the Tampa Tribune only made a passing reference in a teaser line, something I thought was nice, considering that Wednesday morning its minimized impact was all over TV.

Love the Post hed.
I think Tampa underplayed it. Why run a meaningless refer photo of a laptop when you could run a photo refer of Ernesto? I had to scan the page twice to find any mention of it.
In Tampa's defense, however, they are on the west coast (much less affected) and I know the Bodies exhibit is a HUGE deal, and a controversial one, over there.
