WCAU ditches news for sports after Sunday Night Football

N

Nertz!

Guest
For the second time, WCAU has shown Sports Final after Sunday Night Football instead of news. I think this speaks volumes about the station and how committed to news they are. I am sure that if there was some sort of big weather story they would have had a weathercast, I mean newscast. It is just pathetic to assume that the people who watched the football game want more sports instead of a newscast. I am just guessing here that it is something that happened here, given the over obsession with sports here.
 
I will take a guess here. Maybe they assume that those who wanted news got it already via one of the other stations (since the game ran past 11pm) and wanted to keep the sports theme going to keep that audience. I usually watch another station for news but ‘hung around’ after the game to see their sports segment. Esp. since it had Dick V!
Again, just a guess as my background is radio not TV!
 
WCAU-TV did air the newscast after the sports final show. I don't get WCAU now, why are they doing this and why they still don't have a noon newscast?
 
It's simple logic if you use your gray matter. 10 thinks it's a good idea to have Sunday Night Football as their lead in to Sports Final. It makes sense. If you guys listened two weeks ago they said that Sports Final will be traveling with Sunday Night Football. So it only makes sense to have it at 11 directly after the game.

God I hate morons and 12 year olds ::)
