WKMG is tanking. They are number three in the morning. The ratings have never gone anywhere. They are losing the noon for the second ratings period in a row. Prior to the the noon show never lost. I agree the people are nice, but the decisions about what happens in Orlando are made in Detroit. If you want some real insight read rogersimmons.com it's all about Orlando TV. I do think their product looks good, but for some reason they can't get the people to switch on channel 6.
As far as the other stations WFTV leads the pack. They get about a 20 share at noon versus the next station's KMG's 10 share. They have always been a powerhouse.
WESH is slipping. They have people leaving all the time, but their product isn't bad.
WOFL just lost the ND. The shop seems to be turning around. Some people who work there seem happy.
CFN13 is a 24 cable outlet. The Reporter are underpaid and over worked. Everyone is a one-man band. They are getting a new studio in the future which might help with the stations overall look. One plus when working for them you get free cable...
The biggest problem with Orlando is that there are so many things to do, so News isn's a big concern. It's a great place to live and play, but when you can drive 45 minutes and get to the beach who wants to watch TV...
GOOD LUCK!! |
