Happy Annivesary Golden Opportunities
The last major sweeps period of the analog era of television begins this Thursday, October 30th. For the next four weeks expect to see all those "special" reports that make sweeps so fun.
Here is a preview of the first one we'll be airing on WKYC. Channel 3 News' Tom Meyer, "The Investigator,"reveals a new high that's popular with teens, one that's legal, but very dangerous. Here's the promo for Tom's story which airs Thursday October 30th at 11pm on Channel 3 News.
No February Sweeps in 2009
Speaking of ratings, Nielsen will be throwing out the February sweeps period in 2009 as a result of the transition to digital broadcasting. Instead, the book will run March 5th through April 1st giving local stations the opportunity to get viewer's problems worked out before then.
