Why WMTW will always be third

[Dan Billings <billingsdan@yahoo.com>]

During the 11PM News, WMTW spent only 3 minutes on
coverage of the first storm of the season.  They then
moved into national coverage.

#1 rated WCSH spent 7 minutes on the storm.  They then
did 3 minutes of other news, with the only national
news in the first segment being the attempted
high-jacking in Israel.  They'll go back to more
national news later in the show.

Now I'm not saying that storm coverage is hard news or
really the most important thing going on, but it is
the first storm of the season and it is what most
people are interested in tonight.

WCSH also knows that people have lots of other places
to get national news, but very few places to get local
news so they lead with what they do best.

The people at WMTW are just clueless.
