MetroFocus Homes In on Clinton-Trump

The New York nightly newscast just had its most-watched week ever.

For the first time in more than 70 years, since the 1944 election, both major party presidential nominees are from New York.

And as the race for the White House enters its final weeks, one locally-produced news show appears to be benefiting from Clinton-Trump. MetroFocus is a nightly newscast that airs on several PBS stations in the tri-state: Thirteen, WLIW21 and NJTV, at various times in the evening. The show, which is co-hosted by Jack Ford, Rafael Pi Roman and Jenna Flanagan, drew 312,125 viewers last week for all its airings: it’s most-watched week ever.
