Agree that CNN has had the most, but as someone who has been actively looking for coverage of this event it has not been easy to find. I have been taping the national evening news (all stations) since Sunday night. Until the Opry flooded the only coverage was deep into the broadcast and the package was less than 30 seconds. The Opry didn't flood until Monday.
Same with GMA Weekend on Sunday morning.
Here is a perfect example, though I know that the site is subject to change.
ABC News website. For the past few hours, the only mention is all the way to the bottom, under "local." As in, they view this as a local story, but somehow "Does Body Spray Make You Irresistable?" is national.
Hurricanes, tornadoes, etc always lead newscasts and have the "A Team" of reporters on site. especially given the number of people who have died. No one is disputing that there haven't been other stories the past few days, but just that it has been so disproportional to the other 2 (now 3 if you count the murder of Yeardley Love) stories.
