KCBS has been solidly last-place in the ratings in the morning for a while and I hear KCAL has a better reputation despite being literally the same operation, so I guess they’re going to try to goose the network’s viewing numbers by adding a few thousand more viewers in LA.
They’ve also got the CBS Evening News live at 3:30 PT and then again in its usual slot at 6:30. Given the way the local morning shows are ratings juggernauts for KTLA and KTTV (Fox) against their tape-delayed network counterparts, I’m surprised neither of them has (to my knowledge) put a national/world focus on their 6:30 half-hour and spun it as more up to date and with less of a northeast corridor bias. > On Jul 13, 2022, at 09:20, 'Bob Jersey' via TVorNotTV > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Sometime this fall... > -- KCAL/9 will go wall-to-wall local news 4-11am... > -- CBS2 will show "CBS Mornings" LIVE 4-6am, followed by a simulcast of KCAL > 6-7, then the West Coast version of "Mornings" 7-9... > > "As the KCAL newsroom grows, there are also plans to rev up the volume of > original shows and enterprise reporting done for the CBSLA.com streaming > platform, which launched as a 24/7 news feed in June 2019," said CBS L.A. > prez/GM Joel Vilmenay... > > https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/kcal-morning-news-first-kcbs-mornings-1235314324/ > > <https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/kcal-morning-news-first-kcbs-mornings-1235314324/> > (link) > > B > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "TVorNotTV" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tvornottv/e74bf5fa-2fc1-494c-bd9e-15dba58987a5n%40googlegroups.com > > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tvornottv/e74bf5fa-2fc1-494c-bd9e-15dba58987a5n%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
