you can't deny that the concept behind the promo is genius.
5 AND 12 viewers will be tuning in for that story.
pair the special report with the csi: miami lead-in and it's going to be a HUGE night for kpho.
satguy & the other basher are just mad that their station didn't think of it first...
maybe 12 should run their "hooker makeover" story again.
yep, "hooker makeovers". |

I agree. KPNX's "Hooker makeover" was a great promo and story. And so was KPNX's "pornstar reality show" promo and story. I also liked Fox 10's feature on Dildo addiction. The list goes on and on.
What's happening right now is KPNX and KPHO are deadlocked for the m-f 10:00 lead, which KPNX has always won. Because of the Dana move, KPNX is desperate to win again, and so KPNX loyalists are being extra sensitive right now to any innovative promos that KPHO might run that will bring in viewers over the next few days.
Yes, Dana and Cooney are friends. But neither Cooney nor anybody else from KPNX is being criticized in the polygraph promo. The source of AZNewsbuff's criticism about the promo is a single question from the examiner: "Did you enjoy working with Lin Sue Cooney?" Again, one relevant question about a significant part Dana's background, presumably from among several questions. The promo doesn't even give Dana's answer. Of course, that's the genius of it.
