Accuweather is also rather anti-open data, which is concerning. It's also been actively hostile towards the National Weather Service and increasingly becoming a media company rather than a weather agency.

To remove the conflict of interest, Myers stepped down and appointed his brother as the new CEO of Accuweather. A pretty clear case of regulatory capture if you ask me.
