In Reply To: KPNX and KPHO are in a dead heat for late news. Coming out of the ER finale, KPNX went 23 minutes straight without a commercial break. If I was KPHO, I would do the same this Friday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week. Misner is in trouble and the fact he is turning KPNX into a PBS station is a joke. If you can't play by the rules of commercial broadcast JM, I'm there to call you on it. Everyone in this market should know how desparate 12 is to win the sweeps for the 10P. Please Channel 5, fight back. The wimps at 12 are afraid to run commercials. Don't worry, their advertisers will find out. What a hoax of a station! Those of you in the news department there should be ashamed of a gross stunt stunt. What goes around comes around.
Message: There were so many commercials to air in the last 13 minutes, that the station had to put up a "join in progress" for the Tonight Show. Don't worry JM, I'll let NBC know that one too! overrunns are a no no!
