Hey "thetruthmatters," keep dreaming on winning the mornings. Ain't gonna happen. We've got Fitzpatrick, Gray, super, duper Weather PLus Meteorologist Patty Souza, Traffic Pulse 3's Adrianne Bankert and two cool chicks producing the AM. Now ot you Jay1A, it's funny how you're whining about lead ins because what you've failed to mention is that NBC's lead ins are down significantly from year to year and CBS is up signficantly from year to year. Face facts, lead ins are pretty much everything in late night, especially in this market. All I know is this, y'all take one big nosedive off your lead in numbers each night. Why? Because you're the weakest tabloid station I've ever seen in my life. If you're going to do tabloid, do it right, at least! If you're going from 20 plus ratings, down to an 8 in your first quarter at 10pm, I can't wait to see how far that'll dip when you come to 11. Remember, people get very sleeeeepy between 10 and 11. Your station is not respected in this market. KCRA has a long, rich history. Your only hope is that Viacom will come in and clean house, that includes talent, graphics, so you can clean up your image problem in Sac. You can talk when you beat KCRA at 11, but until then, shut your trap. I'll talk to you in November. |

why so bitter, and as usual so wrong?
Back up your statement. Show me that KOVR late night NEWS lead ins are up year to year while KCRA's are down.
I'd love to see it, but you won't because you'd be proven WRONG.
You really gonna try to tell me that CBS lead ins are UP 16% and that NBC lead ins are DOWN 26%? Fool, please!
Instead of dealing realistically with the fact that ONE OUT OF FOUR of your nightside viewers are gone year to year, you hurl lame tabloid insults.
Guess the viewers don't care all that much about that "rich history" you keep babbling about. And as I've said before, our 10PM cleaned your 11PM's clock the last two books while pulling off massive year to year gains.
Your 11PM lost November and Februrary while registering massive LOSSES. Look at the late night trending for the last two years, you guys have been losing double digits in nearly every book. You seem to think that's OK, I wonder if Elliot agrees with you, and how long he's going to let the hemoragging continue.
If "Oprah" weren't clutching you to her massive bosom, you're 5 and 6 would probably be in the same dire straits.
In short kcraer, you don't know the numbers, live in denial, and probably sleep with a channel 3 lapel pin stuck to your jammies.
Show me the lead in numbers to justify a 26% year to year nosedive or go back to the romper room.
