Why Does Summer Make News?

I'm watching the television in here, and these people in the media are going nuts.  They're going insane over the fact it's a hundred degrees in New York in July in the Northeast.  "It's the first time it's a hundred degrees in New York since 2001," they're saying.  So?  So what?  It's global warming, Rush, don't you know?  Yeah, I know what they're trying to do.
