(If you look at the schedules of 4, 7, and 13 we had some pretty good
stuff in the late afternoon. An added feature on Ch. 13 was "The Money
Man," with weather guy Bob Caldwell. He called people all over the station's
six-state viewing area, asking them how much was in the jackpot and what was
the show or star of the day. I think WATE did this, too, and I briefly recall it
on Ch. 12 in Winston-Salem.)

(If you look at the schedules of 4, 7, and 13 we had some pretty good
stuff in the late afternoon. An added feature on Ch. 13 was "The Money
Man," with weather guy Bob Caldwell. He called people all over the station's
six-state viewing area, asking them how much was in the jackpot and what was
the show or star of the day. I think WATE did this, too, and I briefly recall it
on Ch. 12 in Winston-Salem.)
