On today’s Hello Houston, Ernie, Frank, and Celeste talk with Kelly McBride, Senior Vice President of the Poynter Institute, about a false story that has circulated related to the floods in Central Texas at the top of the first hour.

Also, in the first hour of the show, former Spring Branch superintendent Dr. Duncan Klussmann discusses HISD’s teacher vacancies and how they’re addressing them, and Amanda Orr, founder of Orr Strategy Group, discusses scams that occur during times of disaster.
