Corporate background for Accuweather
edit[1]: Makes extensive comments on Accuweather's primary interest in making money as opposed to accurate weather reporting, and attempting to force the National Weather Service to stop furnishing weather information at no charge to enable Accuweather to develop a monopoly on weather forecasting for sale.
[3] Barry Myers, ex-CEO of Accuweather, proposed by Trump to become director of NOAA, "I was originally enrolled in meteorology as an undergraduate. I then dropped out of school because I was a horrible student. I was never interested in learning, which I look at now as sort of funny." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.173.80.235 (talk) 06:16, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

ForecastWatch report
editI object to the inclusion of the ForecastWatch report and have removed its mention from the article. As I stated in Talk:AccuWeather/Archive_1, I am concerned that the ForecastWatch report is not as comprehensive as it claims, seeing as it did not evaluate the National Weather Service, and the report doesn't say whether the differences between forecasting agencies are statistically significant. Additionally, I'd like to know whether ForecastWatch has any connections to the entities it evaluates. I am open to withdrawing my objection if a consensus of non-involved, non-COI editors disagrees.
