In Reply To: You are ALWAYS slamming OIO. Whenever I read a post about Cleveland, there you are spewing your venom. I am so sick of listening to your argument about OIOs early shows being behind the Simpsons. If you are as tv savvy as you want everyone to think, you know news numbers are ALL about lead ins. OIO does well at 11 because of CBS. Early they suffer because of poor LEAD IN. Give OIO Oprah or Dr. Phil and see what happens. Settle down dude, and quit being so nasty all the time.
Message: I'm not slamming WOIO, just pointing out the facts..the actual numbers. The spin-masters at WOIO would have you believe that they have revolutionized TV news and are dominating the Cleveland airwaves. I'm just pointing out that it's not true. In fact, viewers are rejecting their newscasts. As far as lead-in goes...they are their own lead-in at 6pm...their 5pm and their 4pm don't pull any numbers, who's fault is that? And, with a lead-in like they have at 11pm, they should kill the competition at 11pm. They don't. Morning and 6pm are the only time slots all day long that all four stations go head-to-head. And WOIO is dead last in both time slots.
