WPIX Sees Strong Gains in Morning and Evening Newscasts for 2012
The numbers don’t lie! WPIX enjoyed a successful 2012. In year-to-year figures released by the Tribune-owned company, Channel 11 bested its rivals at WNYW and WCBS in the crowded 4 a.m. competition, while tying WABC in that early broadcast.
Equally as impressive, when the local morning shows switch to the network, WPIX has reason to pump its chest, defeating CBS This Morning.
WPIX was the only station to record gains in every hour of the elongated morning newscasts, according to Nielsen Media Research.
