So you are a Responsible News Reporter and are a role model for young and old. And you do something like this to report on the flooding in RI:
I'm never quite sure what is supposed to be accomplished by this. Is there anyone who doesn't think "That has to be one of the most stupid things I've ever seen?" Did he really want to be in there or, as he strode out the door with a camera crew, did a boss yell out "Hey, don't forget your waders. It would be great if you could get soaking wet and put yourself at risk by wading in the flood waters when you give your report. Maybe you'll also teach people it's OK to wade through waist-high floodwater when they absolutely don't have to"
I wonder what emergency response folks think when they see something like this.

He's probably hoping he will get his own show. After all it worked for Anderson Cooper. I remember Cooper's daredevil coverage during the 2004 or 2005 hurricane season. He was on a balcony with potted plants flying by, with the sound of windows shattering in the background. It's all about ratings. Need to get those advertiser dollars.
