In Reply To: Can everybody shut up about lead-ins! Remember, just more than a year ago, Oprah gave KHOU a huge lead-in and KTRK still beat KHOU by far. Same with CSI days. It wasn't until KHOU improved its product and was able to keep viewers around. KHOU and KTRK are both great solid stations. That's why both are so close. So, shut up KRIV-NUT. And KRIV does not beat KHOU at anything! I hope that's not what you were implying in that previous post. And while we're on lead-ins. We can say that KRIV only gets the ratings it does because of American Idol. Look at KRIV on non-AI days, and it tanks.
Message: You took the words right out of my mouth. Krivchick, you are an outsider looking in. I'm an insider who has seen some incredible (not a compliment) things at the station. This management team has problems. I've been here for a long time and know how it runs. I'm tired of seeing something that I used to be proud of sink. But I'm sure you wouldn't understand that, seeing as how KRIV gives no one anything to be proud of.
