TrfRptr 3 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Anybody have Fort Wayne, IN numbers. I know it isnt' an O&O, but I'd be curious with only seemingly 2 operations in town with WANE (CBS) and Indiana's Newscenter (ABC/NBC). I'm sure WANE held the #1 across the board, but I'm curious if they continued to take viewers and grow.

sfomspphl 491 Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Sounds like 5, 6, and 11pm news a bit weak given no mention of newscast growth. Not a fan of that amusement park set. In Los Angeles, KCBSTV CBS 2 ranked a solid #2 sign on/sign off in HHs with year-to-year growth of 8 percent. CBS 2 News at 5 AM (up 100% in HHs versus November 2006) and 6 AM (up 44%) finished the sweep as the two fastest-growing newscasts in the market. Meanwhile, sister station KCAL 9 delivered year-to-year HH increases with its 3 PM and 4 PM newscasts as well as its 8:00-11:00 PM news block.
