5. My guess is...
Reporters gone bye-bye.

If you have food and water and a means to escape, at some point it becomes too dangerous to stay and report on those who have none of the above.

8. That's it exactly.
They're getting the hell out of Dodge and were gonna see stock footage for the next few weeks. CNN sucks when it comes to actual coverage. They'll show the same footage for days. They could take some lessons from the local stations down there.

6. They need to be showing the dead bodies at the convention center...
They have a reporter IN there..it's not like they can use security as an excuse seeing as how there are no law people in the area.

10. It's a big setup
They want to show DESPAIR DESPAIR DESPAIR!! Then they will show the white knight george come in on his horse with a bullhorn to save the day. They will paint a canvas of bullshit to manipulate viewers. They'll ignore how he fell short preparing for this and was about 3 days late on all help.

11. Might be the reporters have reached a point of total exhaustion.



And are getting some much needed rest before prime time comes. This is the "slow" time of day for news feeds anyhow so this would be a good time for them to get 40 winks and get cleaned up a bit.
