KGW was 2nd or 3rd in every newscast... and that was only 6 years ago.
Message: I was starting to question my own memory. Just goes to show you a lot of people on this board have short memories or they weren't here in the first place when these things happened. Keep in mind.. in Feb 99, Gramer either just arrived or wasn't in Portland yet.. I don't exacly remember when he arrived and brought in his management team. Now, can we stop giving Rausch credit for taking KGW to #1.. I'm sure he would love it to be true.. but the fact is he has never run a #1 station in Portland.
