NEOMatrix 1308 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I could be wrong, but I believe that WCAU beats WPVI at 4pm. There's actually a WPVI newscast that's NOT ranked number one? I knew that the FABLife is a pitiful lead-in but...WOW! Well in either case, the other NBC O&Os better get to cancelling Meredith ASAP and adding 4pm news before Disney stems the bleeding from Tyra's show.
Thundershock MN 169 Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 The 4pm news on the ABC O&Os replaced Oprah, not Katie. D'oh! Thanks for correcting me.
CalItalian2 163 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 The 4pm news on the ABC O&Os replaced Oprah, not Katie. KABC has had a 4 PM news for over 35 years. Oprah was on at 3 pm.
24994J 5676 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 KABC has had a 4 PM news for over 35 years. Oprah was on at 3 pm. Great, but the 3 east coasters (and possibly KFSN and KGO) had Oprah at 4. All of ABC's new 4 o'clock newscasts in 2011 replaced Oprah, the others existed before. The point is that those newscasts replaced Winfrey, and not Couric only last year.
TheRolyPoly 2660 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 KABC has had a 4 PM news for over 35 years. Oprah was on at 3 pm. Can't you believe their 4pm news has been on for that long? And their 5pm news has been on for even longer because I know they've had it as early as the late 70s.

And their 5pm news has been on for even longer because I know they've had it as early as the late 70s. Yeah, prior to that, like the other ABC O&Os of the time, they had an afternoon movie that led into the early evening news. As mentioned earlier, KNBC competed head-to-head with KABC for years at 4pm, and of course both had good lead-ins (KNBC had Phil Donahue, and later Rosie O'Donnell, as the lead-in to the 4pm news).

Oh yeah... The 4:30 Movie (3:30 in Central Time Zone) Al Pacino is The Godfather. The 4:30 Movie, tomorrow. This is WABC-TV New York.
brianpr3 178 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 is nbc actually gonna mandate that their o&o's have a 4pm?
TheRolyPoly 2660 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 is nbc actually gonna mandate that their o&o's have a 4pm? We don't know. It's just rumors for now.
WestleyWolf 123 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 well when you think about it NBC 4 news at 4PM. Get it?
mardek1995 200 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 well when you think about it NBC 4 news at 4PM. Get it? Just like NBC 5 news (both DFW and the other NBC 5) at 5 PM and NBC 6 news at 6.
nbc9houston 22 Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 Just like NBC 5 news (both DFW and the other NBC 5) at 5 PM and NBC 6 news at 6. ...and NBC 7 News at 7 for San Diego (should they lose Jeopardy/Wheel of Fortune to another San Diego station)
BehindNYNews 147 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I could be wrong, but I believe that WCAU beats WPVI at 4pm. I know where you are getting that but I think someone who then posted the number proved that wrong. But there was a user that pushed that as a "fact" for a while.
