caliwxdude 252 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Have to wonder how long Jerrick remains employed after that... although, if no one is watching, it might not matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsfan6 22 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 T If FOX brass in NYC or LA were smart, they should cut a deal and stop in house news operations at FOX 29 and let another TV station in town air the news on FOX 29 via outsourcing . Sooner or later, they have to stop the bleeding. The FOX 29 on-air news product is not drawing ratings anymore, no matter what the on-air people do. They are in last place for a reason. 100% false.. None of you have the ratings you just GUESS. The article talked about only the 6pm. Fox is #3 in the market at 5pm and #1 at 10pm (beating Action News on PHL 17). Furthermore the 11pm on FOX was #3 beating KYW again!! The station is #1 in the mornings 6-10am.. which has been the case for several years. Riddle me this hot shot.. Would you add not only a weekend morning show but an 11pm show (which costs more money to staff) if you were not doing well??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not doubting that everyone else’s ratings reports are “guesses”, but what makes yours any different? Sounds like a guess to me, unless you have proof to back it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to show to set the record straight .. but you cannot share propriatory data publicly at risk of being sued per agreements with the company! Only can express percentage growth ect.

The station is #1 in the mornings 6-10am.. which has been the case for several years. I can buy the #1 at 10p counterpoint--I would certainly hope they are given they're more established there and it's the signature newscast--but as I understand it is close between them and 17 some, if not most days. I could also buy the beating KYW at 11 argument because, unfortunately, 3's product is just so dire now (Ukee deserves way better IMO--as much as I love an attempt at WCCO East you just can't do that in Philly.) If they're #3 at 5, that would actually be a decline--I can remember when that news clocked in second place, backed by Judy, which still does quite well at 4PM.

JULIUS 1 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 http://www.adweek.com/tvspy/fox-stations-expanding-news-across-nine-markets/202848 I wonder why WTXF is not on this list. Are they thinking about closing up the news operation of WTXF-TV. Their ratings have not been great for quite sometime and their news product is not really good. I wonder what is really going on at WTXF-29? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cg41386 131 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 They are not on the list because they already did a news expansion a couple years ago. The only slot they could add is middays, but they used to have a midday newscast, but they canceled it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JULIUS 1 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Does anyone think its time for replace the current anchors for new ones for its evening newscasts and perhaps Good Day Philadelphia to improve the station's image to viewers ?

JULIUS 1 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I noticed that Lucy Noland wasn't anchoring during the Bill Cosby verdict coverage today. She wasn't on last night either . I really wonder has the station let Lucy go or is she taking time off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsfan6 22 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 CBS 3 and FOX 29 are the 2 news operations that have a lot of problems with their newscasts and on-air talent. Can you elaborate? What are the "a lot of problems"? If it's purely ratings based then one of them is in a much harder spot than the other. Fox GDP hit #1 for 7-9a during May '18 book and and their 10p product is #1. Can't say the same about the other network. KYW is dead last in every time period. From a monetary standpoint weak news operations are able to make up lack of ratings\AD sales during prime-time programming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JULIUS 1 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 There needs to be wholesale changes at 4th and Market. They will never be the number 1 rated news in the market, unless they let some people go and bring in new talent for their newscasts, and perhaps a new news director. The way things are with their news product is unwatchable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad you're the minority seeing as WPVIs 10pm on PHL still hasn't beat them at 10 and mornings are profitable for them. If you need someone to say good night call your mom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like you have a personal vendetta more so than displeasure with the news product. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
