Watch the video - it's pretty obvious that the guy walking with the shorts is *not* Drew Griffin - he just happens to have the same colored jacket. Drew Griffin is seen running cross camera, 2 seconds pass, the camera pans and shows *another* guy slowly walking. Not the same guy.
Then where is the slow walking red coat when they are actually at the edge pulling the guy out? Why wouldn't he be helping as well? Odd don't think?

What is the problem? Reporter red jacket, crew guy black jacket, rescued guy blue shirt. The entire time. What's weird?
At 00:50 Drew Griffin (?) running toward man in truck. Note clothing.
Nine seconds later, Griffin arrives to drag man from vehicle. Only, now he’s switched from shorts and sandals into black pants and boots. Huh?
It wasn’t much of a desperate emergency if CNN’s Drew Griffin had time to change from a pair of shorts and sandals into a pair of long pants and boots?

Obviously out of frame. I don't know why he didn't help, but that's irrelevant wrt the op.

Would you sacrifice your truck to flood waters just to stage "fake news" for cnn?
Think about it....
Do you know how much it costs to have a vehicle restored after being submerged?

After watching it a few times and listening to the audio carefully, it seems to me that the guy they show in the brown shorts might not be Griffin.
His mic is live as he is heading over there and you can hear the sloshing of water as he is running.
As they show the guy in brown shorts and Griffin says "hold on I am trying to get you a rope" you can still hear the sloshing of his footsteps and the brown shorts guy is basically standing still.
Definitely odd how the cameraman didn't follow the truck to capture the moment as it went out of frame though.
I hate CNN for obvious reasons but I am not sure we are seeing the entire thing here.
Maybe staged, maybe not.....I wouldn't put it past them though.

Obviously...
You know I don't often get into the FAKE news conspiracies nor do I lean to Right to care what CNN does but this one...well it looks like a duck, wet like a duck I think I will call it a CNN Fake duck...its very odd don't you think?

It appears to me as if the cameraman might have been operating from a tripod, and left the camera running in order to provide some assistance, for example, fetching said rope. It might be that one of the people in shorts, is in fact the camera operator.

No, it looks and sounds like people overanalyzing video footage and drawing illogical conclusions.
